I don't understand this complaint. Alert goodies block interaction
until the button is pressed. They exhibit the described behavior, as
far as I can tell. I can't see how you could have two alerts on the
screen at once from a single application.
I suppose you could generate a second alert from some sort of
background task but in my test code, at least, they are displayed
sequentially and not simultaneously.

IMHO, the tone of the two paragraphs above is unduly hostile.
