Create Multipolygon blocks JOSM

[skyper]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. select a closed way
2. "Create Multipolygon" (Ctrl+B)
3. Relation editor opens

What is the expected result?

All actions are possible outside thr relation editor

What happens instead?

The relation editor blocks all actions outside of it.

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if possible.

I tried to delete the member and add a different one but as selection does not work, no members can be added.

The relation editor only opens when preference multipoly.show-relation-editor is true.
Besides that I can reproduce this with r17084

You are right, no regression. Still think, the behavior should not be different than cloning a multipolygon relation.

Code to force modal mode is very old, but it seems to work without it:
