I had a lot of main form miniaturizing problem with dialog box, so I wrote
my own dialog box control which is in fact a Control, directly put on the
top level form.

Now I'm trying to make these dialogs "modal" (I use ApplicationEx and a
special IMessageFilter for this purpose, filtering out all events (but
WM_PAINT) not targeting my dialog control)

It work not too bad, except when one of these dialog host a control with
popup panel such as ComboBox, then the Application kind of become stuck and
I can't do anything at all anymore.

Does anyone of you knows if these kind of popup windows have some special
property I could query with win32 interop ?
I believe they have are kind of attached or somehow there is a tag which
link them to the "parent" control (the combo box, text area in this case)
