Why does Emacs pops up native dialog at all?
Even the minibuffer based version is not so convenient.
Would not it be better to show a new buffer listing all the unsaved
changes and relevant buttons in one place, not sequentially popping up
in dialog or minibuffer?
Something like:
Modified buffers exist.
[Save all buffers and quit]
[Exit anyway]
Save file /tmp/a?
[Save]
[Discard changes]
[View]
[View and quit]
[View changes]
[Save this but no more]
Save file /tmp/b?
[Save]
[Discard changes]
[View]
[View and quit]
[View changes]
[Save this but no more]
Save file /tmp/c?
[Save]
[Discard changes]
[View]
[View and quit]
[View changes]
[Save this but no more]
