Don't have the time now to do that, but reopening in case someone else wants to follow-up with the JavaFX guys.

I personally think it's a non-issue, because modal dialogs are by definition supposed to "grab the user's attention" and prevent interaction with the parent app.

So one could argue they're behaving as expected, by blocking OS-level events (like moving window, maximizing window) targeted at the parent window, until the modal popup is closed. Maybe from their side, the Linux and macOS behaviors are the "buggy" ones, where moving the parent window around is possible while a modal dialog is showing.

Either way, leaving this open for further discusion.
