So don't use alerts You stated dialogs other than alerts can handle the messages properly so just don't use the built-in alert dialogs in your app. I've done this in my applications because Alert dialogs have their own even handlers and will pass events you may need to the OS. Very annoying if you're trapping something like the hardware keys (and I guess MSR events too).
