Ah, too bad. Oh well, it is a minor thing I can change as needed.

Just to show you what I am talking about though, here are screenshots of the dialog as shown on an n900. Hildon style interfaces do not allow full screen dialogs, they always leave the top area to click on to close it.

Here are screenshots of the hildon dialog before and after my changes, the top blurry section is where you touch to close the dialog, which is standard for any hildon app so users are used to it. Since it won't work for Maemo 4 though probably best to not merge it into source.
