PROBLEM STATEMENT

As far as I can determine, the colordialog.py sample application GUI cannot be used to open more than a single ColorDialog.  However, the at-spi 'click' action can be used to open multiple ColorDialogs.

REPRO

1.  Run Accerciser, click on the "Interface Viewer" tab, and expand the "Action" expander
2.  Run uia2atk/test/samples/colordialog.py
3.  In Accerciser's left pane, browse to and select the "ColorDialog Button" button
4.  Perform the 'click' action in Accerciser's interface viewer (by selecting the 'click' action and pressing the "Perform action" button)
5.  Repeat step 4 until you get bored

RESULTS

An additional ColorDialog appears each time the 'click' action is performed on the "ColorDialog Button" button.

EXPECTED RESULTS

I would expect that only one ColorDialog could be opened at a time from any given source.

COMMENTS

Not sure if this is even something that is fixable, but I would consider it a bug since we are allowing something that apparently can't be done by the user from the GUI.
