Just my experience.
I had accidently done this once. One sheet was an open dialog and the
other said that you had chosen a corrupted file. I did not think that
they would come down one on top of the other but because the alert sheet
did not have a target assigned to it, everything seemed to work fine
(all the buttons worked on the alert sheet and the rest of the window
was locked out until the sheets disappeared. The only problem I ran
into was that window did not correctly get rid of the sheets. Easily
avoided by redrawing all of the views but still not a very good work
around.
Unless we are supposed to be able to have multiple sheets down at once,
it seems that once a sheet is down on a particular window that an
exception should be thrown to prevent that sort of thing from happening
or at least lock out any other sheet creation.

Hello,
When a sheet was up in the main window of my single window application
I pressed CMD-N by accident - to my surprise this opened a new sheet
that I use to find files in the file system. So then I had two sheets
up that the same time - wierd! The controls didn't work in either
sheet, so I had to kill the application from PB.
Shouldn't the frameworks prevent stupid things like this from
happening? I thought that the application wouldn't answer to user input
requests like CMD-N while the first sheet was up? (Like the recent
thread about not being able to quit the application before dismissing
the sheet)
