Zeljko commented on WTR-414:
----------------------------

The more I think of it, the more I think it would be the best to completely remove popup support from Watir and provide separate gem for each platform.  I do not think there is a single solution that works on all platforms Watir supports. Maybe we should use WinWindow (http://winwindow.vapir.org/) on Windows and create gems for other platforms.

> When specifying the title of a modal_dialog, using IE 8, the suffix has changed from "Web Page Dialog" to "Webpage Dialog".
> I updated line 46 of modal_dialog.rb to use this new description (see attached), but not sure how to add backwards compatibility.
