Modal dialogs are evil from UI ergonomy point.
Try to avoid them as much as possible, if you think you "need" modal dialog, you are very likely having some serious problem with your overall UI design, or you are taking a coding shortcut to omit code which would be needed to handle more "alive" windows at the same time. (The latter is understandable as resources are never unlimited, but try to avoid them...)

Ahh, well, after 8 years of experiences of dealing with users of my little municipal agenda, I would not draw conclusions so fast.

Modal dialogs have their places in GUI.

(That said, it is as easy to do modal and modeless in U++)
