Great news,

While doing so, also take a look at the IFrame behind the dialog trick.

I had to disable that trick because in a HTTPS environment we were
experiencing 0.5 seconds delay to show Popups.
I was using the PopupPanel class to implement a custom rendering of a
ComboBox widget and every instance added to the DOM tree would result
in 0.5 seconds lost.

Our GUIs use a lot of these ComboBox widgets so it was taking minutes to show!

In IE7 there is no need to do this anymore. In our case I did not even
need it in IE6 since we were not using widgets that would cause the
PopupPanel to be intersected with other widgets underneath.
