I've often seen the situtation where one of my apps say "Quit now, Are you
really, really sure?" while the rest of Windows is crashing and burning
around it. It's hard to reach the dialog, and Windows pops up yet another
dialog saying "Application 'fred' is not responding. Kill with maximum
force?" And if the user is on fire, they get to shut down everything anyway.
