In the end, I have used this desperate solution:

	dlg.Open();
	Vector<Ctrl *> wins = Ctrl::GetTopWindows();
	for(int i = 0; i < wins.GetCount(); i++) {
		TopWindow *w = dynamic_cast<TopWindow *>(wins[i]);
		if(w->GetScreenRect().Intersects(dlg.GetScreenRect()) && w->IsTopMost()) {
			dlg.TopMost();
			break;
		}
	}
	dlg.Title(title);
	return dlg.RunAppModal();

I've discovered that this doens't work on X11. For whatever reason TopMost must be set before the window opens. On Win32 however, it only works the other way round Rolling Eyes

I changed my version to:

#ifdef PLATFORM_WIN32
	dlg.Open();
#endif
	Vector<Ctrl *> wins = Ctrl::GetTopWindows();
	for(int i = 0; i < wins.GetCount(); i++) {
		TopWindow *w = dynamic_cast<TopWindow *>(wins[i]);
		if(w && w->GetScreenRect().Intersects(dlg.GetScreenRect()) && w->IsTopMost()) {
			dlg.TopMost();
			break;
		}
	}	
#ifdef PLATFORM_X11
	dlg.Open();
#endif

but obviously that's a bit of a horrible bodge.
