Correct, and that flag is being passed. Rave implements dialog and modal_dialog (aka rave.opensocial.VIEW_TARGETS.DIALOG / MODALDIALOG), are you using the modal version? It is receiving the backdrop: 'static' flag, and should not ever close except clicking on a button bound to gadgets.views.close. The standard dialog does not have the static backdrop. >>very well for users who miss click.
