It was actually a dialog element with the open attribute already set in the HTML, but I guess that's effectively the same.

It seems to me that the entire dialog API is very confusing, because a prexisting open attribute means the dialog is non-modal, but calling showModal on a non-open dialog also sets the open attribute! Moreover, there's no "modal" attribute, even though according to the spec there appears to be an internal "is modal" flag.
