Any recommend paradigm or work-flow suggestions to deal with Gnome 3 dialog behavior.

[Andrew Douglas Pitonyak <andrew pitonyak org>]

Old method of working:

In Firefox, I right click on a file and choose Save As. A dialog is 
displayed with information in the title bar and I can move the dialog so 
that I can see what is underneath it to help me set the file name. For 
example, I might append version information or a date to the file name.

Old method of writing code:
The title bar in a dialog frequently contains useful information. Gnome 
3 defaults to not showing the title bar for dialogs, so that information 
is no longer available. Even though I usually set the title bar text 
when I write code, it is no longer displayed / available.

I assume that this behavior is intentional...

Question: Can I configure the behavior to show me the title bar and to 
not lock the dialog to the parent window so that moving the dialog also 
moves the parent window?

Question: When I write a cross-platform application, should I simply 
create a new text label to display the data that I usually display in 
the title bar (at least for the dialogs that I create)?
