Yes, (most of) the modal dialog boxes are embarrassing for me, but it 
would still be a problem for you if the problems are related to accounts 
that you need (since the alternative is to temporarily take an account 
off line and wait for user feedback in a non-modal dialog).

I *think* it would be possible using AppleScript. Maybe even by simply 
sending a “Return” to the front-most window (although you might want 
to “hit” a “Cancel” button depending on the problem).
