I get your point but can we consider this as a "defensive" fix much like DiD fix that we do, in case application does't take care of it, so that we dont get this kind of hang situation...We have print dialog as always-on-top so we can consider this optionpane modal dialog also be the same...
If any issues arise, we can always roll it back later on..
