There may be reasons why a window-modal sheet is not suitable, but the relative sizes of the windows should not be one of them, in my opinion.  A sheet is not "within" the the window which owns it; it's attached to it, and kind of on top of it.  It is most definitely not analogous to Win32 child windows.
