Yes, that's the whole point of making popups non-modal.  Several ones
already are.

Are there times when the respondent might want to view other windows before
answering?  I can imagine being frustrated if the popup says "do you want to
convert this share?" and my answer is dependent on needing to use the menu
to see the stock market, for example.

I have pushed a change to disable all buttons (in the current window) as
long as a non-modal popup request has not been answered.
Two questions remain, on which I'm in doubt:
1. Should (most) menu items also be disabled?
2. Should we make an exception to message-only popups?  I currently do.
