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?
