Showing a modal dialog from paint() is very artificial, isn't it? :) 
Given how complex Swing painting code is, I doubt we'll be able to 
reliably support scenarios like this. But in general, I agree, the 
current Pavel's fix doesn't look robust and actually hide the real 
problem, making it even harder to debug.

Thanks,

Artem
