Hi, I have a proposal for per-tab modal dialogs for dialogs shown by javascript's alert() and so on. This is similar to how chrome does it and is a very convenient way.
A couple of use cases. It often happens that a site with HTTP-authentication asks for a user name and password. In my case that username is usually open in my personal wiki or email in another tab. tab-modal dialogs would allow me to access that after the dialog is launched Allow closing of incessant javascript alerts or something or be able to use other tabs even when one tab is doing some interaction via dialog boxes. I plan to implement this by overriding QWebpage::javascriptAlert() and associated functions in Rekonq's WebPage class. WebView::setEnabled(false) will effectively make the dialog 'modal' for the tab. I haven't really figured out how to show the dialog in the tab itself without adding a new 'desktop global' dialog window, but I think it should be possible. But before I implement it, I'd like some comments on if this is something people want in Rekonq.
