I see. I was looking at the code and it didn't seem that way to me, but I didn't do a lot of digging. You're probably correct.

AFAIK, we don't use the "modal" flag, but instead try to

    Hi Scott,

    Aside from the description over at [1] for why it was changed to a
    privileged feature, I can imagine that companies making popup ads
    would love to make their popups take control of the browser.

    I think a preferred alternative would be to otherwise block user
    input (keyboard, mouse clicks, etc.) in the dialog's launcher
    window rather than attempting to use this privileged feature.

        The more I look at this the more I dislike trying to request the
        security.  Enabling this feature in Firefox makes Firefox
        vulnerable to
        script attacks.  What do others think?
