Minimizing a modal dialog does not achieve much because the owning window is still blocked. Unless that window is minimized along. At least Windows usually disables the window decoration buttons of the owning window though.

I just tried initOwner() on Mac OS X. The dialog "bounces" in the minimized state off and on; I mean, I see first the Genie effect "out" and the dialog is minimized, and immediately after I see the Genie effect "in" and the dialog is restored. At the very end, the whole application window is pushed back (that is, other application windows get over it).

I presume it doesn't make much sense :-) But it actually disables the "full screen" and maximize buttons as expected.
