There is a chance in the application where only one, borderless window displayed on the secondary screen, so there are possible circumstances where displaying a window-modal panel not quite useful.

But there are things which only controllable with the UI, deleting layers for example. And there are some circumstances - for example, loading a whole project, where the app's state just reseted before displaying the open panel, and the loading process presume everything is clear when iterating thru the load data, so it could would be bad if the app's "clear state" can change when an open panel is opened.
