Description Elijah Newren 2005-08-11 16:46:47 UTC 
Some dialogs have no parent.  The slow keys and sticky keys accessibility alerts
fall into this category (see bug 303136), but so do others.  Sometimes, such
windows will be denied focus.  If so, we should avoid having them obscured by
the focus window just as we do for normal windows.  Simple one-line patch to fix
this will be attached in a minute.
