Making the dialogue modal to the parent window is ok for me. The
difference with _run_async is that it doesn't require a recursive
mainloop :) In Epiphany, printing can be called from mozilla code, where
I really don't want to run a recursive mainloop (this blocks networking
and has several other problems). So a totally async API for print
dialogue and job would be very appreciated.
