Modifying the dialog to trap cmd-. is doable. However, the problem is
how to pass that cmd-. further -- as Richard explained, the exit to top
does not work as expected, that is the script exists to top within the
dialog stack while the calling script continues.
I wonder whether it is possibly to send cmd-. (in time) while closing
the dialog. It should either carry over to the loop below or auto-cancel
the next dialog popping up.
A workabout I use is to have a cancel button in such a dialog and check
for cancel in the looping script.
Yes, at the moment it appears that canceling within the script that
calls a modal is necessary for "exit to top" to be honored. There's a
request to change that to honor it from wherever it's called, but in the
meantime we have to handle it in the calling handler.
