Description
I use a dynamic tiling window manager called bug.n on Windows 10.
I have set bug.n to manage fman file manager windows so that they are tiled correctly alongside my other windows. However, I don't want modal dialog boxes to trigger dynamic resizing of all of my windows.
The reason cannot prevent this is that fman's modal dialog boxes have the same window title as the fman main window.
Ideally, fman's main window would continue to have the title "fman" but modal dialog boxes would have sensible titles like "Confirm delete files" or something.
If the modal dialog boxes had different titles to the main fman window I could tell bug.n to treat them differently.
This issue would disappear if #313 was "fixed".

Research direction
The issue names no files or tests. Start by tracing the modal dialogs in the Python desktop application and review issue #313 to understand the related behavior. Done means each modal dialog has a distinct, meaningful title while the main window remains titled "fman", allowing bug.n to distinguish them.
