If the dock is set to hide when a window overlaps it, I think we can ignore
these dialog windows.
After all, they are dialogs of a parent window, and this one is probably
maximized, so it hides the dock.

It's the other case that causes trouble (dock hides on active window),
because popping the dialog window will make the parent window lose the
focus, so the dock will re-appear.

If this case is fixed, I think we're ok (and by the way, as another
solution, when a dialog window appears, we could also get the parent
window, and consider it didn't loose the focus).
