OSM edit dialog opens in wrong place under wayland

Created attachment 332885 [details] screenshot When I hit edit it doesn't open in the center of the screen.
Does this also happen for other dialogs (such as the social network check-in dialog)?
Is this still happening with latest shell/mutter/things?
This seem to happen also with the "export as image" dialog. But not for the checkin dialog. One difference seems to be that the checkin dialog is modal. Not sure if that is the reason. Maybe the OSM edit (and account) and export dialogs should be modal in any case?
There is currently no way to position dialogs under Wayland; unless they are modal, they are positioned like any other toplevel window. I know there are some that want to introduce relative initial positioning, but no-one has done the work to write the specification of how to do so.
Created attachment 357068 [details] [review] contextMenu: Make OSM edit and export view dialogs modal Also add a property carrying the main window (for tracking dialog modality).
