… application windows.

Description of work:

This PR sets a parent window on all dialogs so they are transient for their owning application windows, which means they will be shown together close to their application windows--and not somewhere else, or, the other extreme, just obscuring the entire application window they belong to.

To test:
Open the respective dialog window on a big screen. You'll see each dialog now is a (smaller) popup centered over the owning application window and stays close to it.

I can explain further if needed. Basically, it just sets the parent window of the dialogs so the system knows what dialog is [requested for] for what window.
