[issue24039] Idle: some modal dialogs maximize, don't minimize

Terry J. Reedy added the comment: Dialogs attached to a particular window should be 'transient' to that window. https://www.tcl.tk/man/tcl8.6/TkCmd/wm.htm#M64 It is an oversight that the window search and replace windows are not. Modal windows, including the current Find in Files might just a
