Maybe there'll be a fix in a patch for that. And while they're at it, they might fix the WindowType, where modal is an allowed choice for a top-level, even though it in fact cannot be modal...

Whatever it's called, from what Ken Levy's mentioned, it sounds like some significant new features have been added. As a matter of fact, I'm delaying some new development until it's released.

I hope you're not holding your breath, or more than the envelope will be blue!
