The default (when using WinDlgBox) is application modal -- it prevents
access to the _owner_ (not the parent,  which is usually HWND_DESKTOP)
until the user dismisses the dialog.

System modal should rarely be used by an application -- and it pisses me
off greatly.  For example "error out of diskspace,  retry?" is a
useless system modal dialog,  since you can't switch to another program to
free up some disk space.
