To me, making a window non-resizable is a good way to make the window unmaximizable. Do you see any cases, when a window should be resizable, but not maximizable?
I create resizable modal dialogs on a frequent basis. To me, sizability is a convenience for the user. At the same time, modal dialogs should not be maximized. My opinion.
Unminimizable windows are annoying. If we disable that, we'll likely get some weirdness, e.g. Win+M or Win+D on Windows will leave the window on the desktop, which is not what users expect.
Minimizing a modal dialog does not achieve much because the owning window is still blocked. Unless that window is minimized along. At least Windows usually disables the window decoration buttons of the owning window though.
