​Not to be argumentative but there are places where ALERT is desirable or
difficult to duplicate. For example, in my custom alert method I found that
if I try to open a window with a modal or floating window already in the
foreground my new window would open behind it. The only way I've been able
to handle that situation is with ALERT or using the currently open window.

​I'd be glad to know about a better way to handle that - it's been a while
since I messed with that code.
