What happens when a slave calls "error(...)"?

The dialog created by Job::showErrorDialog() is a queued, non-modal dialog. 
There's no flag AFAIK, however you could create a modal dialog if you need by 
calling Job::setAutoErrorHandlingEnabled(false) and by creating the dialog 
yourself - look at the code in job.cpp Job::showErrorDialog() for an idea how 
to get the information you need for a modal dialog.
