In working on this, I found that it was all around the modal layer.  So, I
just created a global Swiz event to handle adding/removing popup children
and I manage the overlay manually by adding a basic component over top my
content.  The popups are all non-modal, but I'm re-creating the overlay
manually creating them as modal to the user.

I'll test out the SystemManager direction as well.  Curious, when creating
a modal popup through PopupManager, does it actually add 2 items to the
SystemManager (overlay and popup component)?  Or is the overlay something
built into flash in another way?

Thanks!
