The root warning dialog (grep for "This could be dangerous") opens up before
the main window and is immediately obscured by it, but still has focus leaving
the main window unresponsive. This would be solved by making the warning window
transient for the main window
(http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/stable/GtkWindow.html#gtk-window-set-transient-for)
or possibly opening the warning window *after* the main dialog.

It also has the title "Untitled window" (depending on the window manager) which
is not very friendly ;)
