According to the new modality specification, the modal dialog should always stay on top of the windows that it block. I opened a Frame and an Application Modal dialog from an applet. When I click on the frame that is currently blocked by the dialog, frame appears above the modal dialog and the modal dialog is hidden. This is incorrect.

This is reproducible only on SolSparc10-JDS with Mustang-b73. Not reproducible on Win32. Not reproducible on Tiger-FCS on the same platform. This works fine when running it as an application.

I have attached a sample test. Launch the HTML file on Mozilla 1.7. You will see 2 frames being loaded. Click on 'Open Dialog' button. A modal dialog would appear. Now try clicking on the Frame which has the button that you clicked. If the dialog goes behind the frame, the bug is reproduced.
