Hack alert!
Try calling [NSEvent startPeriodicEventsAfterDelay:0 withPeriod:0.2]
before putting up the WebView-containing modal dialog. Put some
exception handling around that call (it throws if you nest), and
turn off periodic events when you're done.
If that fixes the problem, then it tells you that you might need
to do some run loop hackery to make sure that NSURLConnection
processes events during the modal loop.
We have a similar problem with Carbon Event handling during
runModalForWindow, and that hack worked around it for a while
(I'm now trying to figure out a better solution).
