--- Comment #6 from Heiko Tietze <tietze.heiko at gmail.com> ---
The fields dialog is amodal in order to insert many references at once. Not
only to have something like "cf.<chapter>p.<page>" but to step through your
text and add many references at different positions.

While there might be a few users of this feature the drawback is worse. So
please make the "fields" dialog modal. And as a guideline: Dialogs are always
modal. If the workflow requires repeated interaction it has to be supported via
sidebar.

This is clearly an EASYHACK. Please add codepointers.
