Windows doesn't do that. The application (installer in this case) does
that.  The problem with Windows is they let developers specify the
properties of the dialogs, even "critical" ones. Oh, wait, the
application does not think it's "Critical" so it does not specify
"Always On Top" or whatever....And should it be a modal dialog?...
