Bug Description
This isn't linked to 0.9.5.0 properly, but from the new unity dialog, just keeping it there to see if a solution is possible
1. resize gedit so that gedit is a small window
2. click on save
the save dialog is an unity dialog, very small, which can't be used and can't be resized.
Even resizing its parent window don't enable it to be resized (contrary to the previous behavior where you can resize the window):
- you have to close it and open it again with the new parent dialog size.
It can become even first in case of nested modal dialogs: bug #805975
-------
Desired solution:
If the parent window is too small to display the modal dialogue, when the modal dialogue is opened the parent window temporally increases in size to slightly larger than the modal dialogue. When the modal dialogue is closed the parent window returns to its original size and position.

On hold for now, but put on the unity radar for later.
