        I am creating a JDialog from a JOptionPane and setting it as modeless. I am opening 2 such dialogs. Then I am opening an App modal JDialog. App modal dialog blocks all the windows.

        Now on winXP, I am clicking on 'Show Desktop' icon. Everything is minimized to taskbar. Now I am pressing ALT+TAB and trying to select the java icons shown, assuming that the java dialogs will be restored back to the screen. But none of the dialogs get restored, until I click the taskbar icon. This is reproducible only on Mustang and not reproducible on Tiger-FCS. Reproducible only on Win32 and not on XToolkit.

        To reproduce, run the attached test. Click on JOptionPane button. A dialog will be shown at the center. Now click on the JDialog button. A modal dialog will be opened. Click 'Show Desktop'. Now press ALT+TAB and select the java icon from the list shown. Check if java windows are restored back. If not, the bug is reproduced.
