If you're referring to needing to keep the tool stack's controls non-selectable, yes, I either use a palette stack style, or if I want the window to be interleavable with others I sometimes use modeless.

Works great in the IDE or in a standalone. Of course, as with any frontScript handler, you'll want to pass the message when you're done with it so other scripts depending on it won't get FUBARed.
