If you use the menus in Emacs to call a function and this function for
example calls y-or-n-p then a popup dialog will be shown (if
use-dialog-box is t). This dialog box can not be canceled, at least not
on w32.
I think this is a bug and that a third alternative for canceling should
be added.
Normally you can type C-g in the Emacs window to quit out ofthe
dialog. (I don't know whether this works on Windows.) Nonetheless,
adding "Quit" as an alternative would not be a bad thing -- for all
platforms.
Would someone like to do that?
