Details

The webpayments dialog is currently implemented as window-modal, and as such we should not allow for switching the selected tab while it is open. If switchToTabHavingURI finds that a tab exists but is within a window that has a webpayments dialog open, it should ignore that window and open the tab in either a new window or an existing window if one already exists.

After comparing the breakdown of window modal vs. tab modal, the current plan is to use a Tab Modal dialog since the level of effort is similar and tab modal is a much better UX.
