           Summary: CSV importer opens some modal windows behind parent
                    windows
           Product: kmymoney4
           Version: 4.8.0
          Platform: MS Windows
                OS: MS Windows
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: csvimporter

  Target Milestone: ---

When using the CSV importer, it has a tendency to open modal windows behind the
CSV importer window, which makes KMyMoney appear to have locked up. You can't
even move the window that's blocking the new dialogue, because the new dialogue
is modal. I've noticed this on warning messages, as well as on selecting the
account to import into at the end of the process. Here's one way to reproduce
it:

1) Open a KMyMoney file with a CSV banking profile already set up.
2) File -> Import -> CSV
3) Select an existing CSV profile
4) Click the 'clear' button to the right of the profile name.
5) KMyMoney will pop up a modal 'Delete or Edit Profile Name' dialogue UNDER
the "CSVWizard" window to which it's parented.

Workarounds:

1) Make sure you move the CSVWizard window AWAY from the centre of the screen
before doing anything with it, so it won't be blocking any windows that pop up.
2) On Windows, you can use Alt+Space,M to enter 'move window' mode. Use the
cursor keys to move the window out into the open.

The core of the problem seems to be that the CSVWizard window is a topmost
window, staying on top even when other applications are open.
