Eelco Hillenius commented on WICKET-18:
---------------------------------------

A non-modal modal window... :) Seriously, should the name be changed if this 
patch would be accepted?

Also, I'm wondering - though without taking a look at the patch - if this is 
not going to be too much of a kitchen sink component. I mean, there's tons of 
options out there for internal popups in Javascript libs such as YUI or Dojo 
and such... at some point we should choose between keeping a component simple 
and focussed or being a thing that does the dishes and ironing on top of being 
a modal window.

I don't feel that strongly about it, as I'm not the unlucky bastard maintaining 
it at this point, but I can totally imagine this feature opening the way for 
newer, crazier feature requests.

Just my 2c.

> We have the requirement for a pop-up div that is not modal. Supplied patch 
> creates a non-modal window, allowing users to drag the window and work with 
> the underlying page.
> Missing feature: correctly detect and track multiple window instances
> works for both panel and page variants
