I'm not sure I get the idea here. any program that breaks anything,
especially unrelated applications, is very buggy anyways.

or do you propose having a purely technical session, saying that no matter
what it looks like, if it supports session management, dnd and other things
like that, it's "GNOME friendly" ?

not sure. look at gimp, they use it that way all over the place and it looks
quite good. that is always on the assumption that the window isn't 623
pixels wide, but I as we are speaking of simple dialogs with only one
button, I think those of that size are quite rare.
