No macro playback for modal windows

[westram]

Macros do not work with modal dialogs.

Example:

BIO::remote_action($gb_main,"ARB_NT","selection_admin");
BIO::remote_action($gb_main,"ARB_NT","SPECIES_SELECTIONS/STORE"); 
BIO::remote_awar($gb_main,"ARB_NT","tmp/input/string","bla");
BIO::remote_action($gb_main,"ARB_NT","CREATE_CONFIGURATION/OK"); 
BIO::remote_action($gb_main,"ARB_NT","SPECIES_SELECTIONS/CLOSE");

Execution hangs in "SPECIES_SELECTIONS/STORE" and waits for the user to enter a configname.

Solutions:

• dont use modal dialogs (sic)
• add "Never ask again" toggles to modal question windows
  • when selected, store next answer as default answer
  • add "Again ask me everything" to Properties menu
• enhance way actions are recorded (not sure whether this may work):
  • when execution is inside a callback during macro recording, record differently, e.g.
    

    BIO::remote_modal_awar($gb_main,"ARB_NT","tmp/input/string","bla");
    BIO::remote_modal_action($gb_main,"ARB_NT","CREATE_CONFIGURATION/OK"); 
    

  • write these actions before the callback itself
  • when executing BIO::remote_modal_...(), don't execute, just put the commands to some FIFO
  • when inside a modal loop and no events wait, lookup that FIFO and execute first commands from there. repeat.
  • when execution of normal remote_action/remote_awar ends, clear the FIFO

(see also #63)

[westram]

• [8359] implements "Never ask again" toggles, making it possible to work with macros that trigger modal question dialogs
• other modal dialogs (e.g. those requesting a string/file) are still problematic. They should be replaced with a different way to get the needed input from the user (e.g. ask before starting the action)
