I have to agree with Damian. I haven't yet run into a problem with Modal 
Sheets. Since they are modal, there's no way to edit the underlying 
window. And at least on the applications I've used, the information in 
the dialog has been clear and complete. In fact, in our office (which 
has largely moved from Linux/Solaris development to OS X) Modal Sheets 
are one of the favorite features.
