Description
It's quite the complex setup, but in my application i have a custom child row and when i expand it and perform some action it triggers a table.draw(false) redraw of the table, after which the responsive plugin triggers _redrawChildren and shows the modal dialog which doesn't really make sense at that point. Especially when on Desktop where no responsive modal should have shown up to begin with

Research direction
Start by tracing the responsive plugin's _redrawChildren path and the table.draw(false) redraw described in the report. Reproduce the custom child-row scenario, including desktop behavior, and verify that a redraw does not reopen a responsive modal that should remain closed.
