           Summary: Calling Application.DoEvents inside a modal ShowDialog

If I use Application.DoEvents inside a modal ShowDialog, the dialog effectively
becomes non-modal in the sense that it allows me to click on things behind it
(at least on Windows).

Is this because DoEvents in XplatUI is just a generic PeekMessage loop, whereas
Application's RunLoop has a bunch of extras (which could be moved to a message
filter to make them run in the DoEvents)? Or is there something more
complicated?

In any case, this is a definite bug. In Windows I am able to call
Application.DoEvents and the dialog stays modal. Pretty serious since it makes
repainting during a long-running operation impractical.
