For sure, your contributions are welcome. We are not reactive all the time, but try to do our best to incorporate patches. > However simple this might be, I do have two unsolved issues: > > 1.

I agree that it would be better to make it modal, but I doubt that reimplementing an event loop would be a good solution. Probably Qt allows for passing all incoming events to a subwidget. Otherwise, such as system might be implemented. Max?
