OK, thanks for the hint! Not all modal dialogs come from Dolphin
itself though (example: KIO's "File exists already" dialog), so one
would have to make sure that these external dialogs use
Qt::WindowModal too.

Here is the commit:

12ad97951bf1762e6a7bb0bdc7

It also mentions that the "each window in its own process" approach
prevents that a crash brings down all Dolphin windows. This is still
true, of course, but the times when Dolphin crashed a lot because of
bugs in Strigi and Nepomuk are over thanks to Vishehs's awesome work
:-)

Well, if it can be done without regressions (except for the "one
window crashes all" issue), then I wouldn't mind. It would reduce the
memory usage and the startup time, after all.

Cheers,
