resume rev backdrop on top bug?

[Eric Chatonet]

Hi Marielle and Sivakatirswami,

Well known...
Entered as a bug by Klaus on 2001! Assigned to Tuviah Snyder.
Noted as major :-) and I am the only one who voted for...
In fact, as Rev is used by many educators who often need to "contain"  
their students, this feature might appear to be more important than  
in other dev environments. These developers should vote for this  
bug... or:

Last year I needed *absolutely* a backdrop for a very large app  
dedicated to seniors in order to let them wrapped in a cocoon  
especially designed for them...
I ended by creating the backdrop by myself with a simple modeless  
stack :-)
But it was not perfect: a little flash at mousedown with slow  
machines...
