Depending upon the sizes of the two windows... The modal window can parent itself, and
center itself over the child window. Of course the user can still drag the modal window,
uncovering the child window. An alternative would be to have the modal window "hide" the
parent window (if that's what you really want), and then unhide it when it is being destroyed.
