Description

It would be great to have overlay dialogs using BlockUI (http://malsup.com/jquery/block/) instead of popup windows.

MSIE looses selection if you don't use popups, so we firstly need to save it. Planned for 0.5.

I would like to vote for this future, the windows add unnecessary clutter to the user's desktop, and may easily lead to unintended behaviour of the editor. Also, modal windows within the browser are just... cool ;)

Actually we just found an effective way to save selection in MSIE and other browsers - popups will be suppressed in the next major version (0.6).

Dont know if this is the right place to ask this, anyways: Is there a schedule for the release of 0.6? If not (or if it wont happen in the near future - which is what i suspect), what is the solution to save selections in IE? Is there already some code i could use with 0.5? Or at least some links that would push me into the right direction?
