Don't call 'runModalForWindow' and it should work.

A sheet implicitly grabs focus from the window it is a sheet for.  
Other windows in the application continue to respond.

'runModalForWindow' grabs focus from all windows in the application  
to the chosen one (and is rarely needed), and can only be stopped  
using stopModal and friends (see the documentation).

Hope that helps,
