xforms has the option. Qt2 frontend is always modeless unless specifically
asked for.
I think the vague rule is : document content dialogs default to modeless, others
may or may not be, depending on situation.

This is a very difficult problem for the manuals. Already qt2 and xforms differ
rather a lot on certain dialogs.
However, it's also something that can be postponed ;)
