Title:
  Preference window should not be modal (i.e. not block the main window)

Status in OpenShot Video Editor:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  When opening a form above the main UI Window (or any other window
  related to OpenShot) and click on the window under it, it will lose
  focus. This shouldn't be the case.

  E.g.

  Select menu "Edit  >  Preferences". The "OpenShot Preferences" form
  will popup. If you click to the window under it, Preferences window
  will lose focus. The selected window isn't usable, no control works.
  In order to return to the Preferences form you should press "Alt+Tab"
  or select it from the task bar, witch in my opinion should be there
  either.

  It also happens when an error message pops.

  I don't know if this is a limitation of Python.
