There are still malware and advertising sites out there that allow browsers to use modal dialogs (ie, you can't interact with the page without answering the dialog). You can't even close the tab without getting rid of the dialog. There are also sites that will kill your page history by going through a bunch of redirects to prevent you from leaving with the back button. Why are these kinds of things allowed and supported by web browsers? Why do they even need the ability to have a pop up dialog with modern web sites being what they are?
