Modal interfaces

(need definition of modal interfaces here)

Some modal features (like our secondary/auxilary toolbar) are appropriate, as long as they are simple conveniences, or the features they provide access to are completely inappropriate outside a specific setting (e.g. node operations in the node tool).

However, in general usability studies have shown that modal interfaces are harmful for usability.
