Subject: [PATCH] ui: open a modal once when its button is double-clicked

A modal slides in over 250 ms, and until it covers the button that opened it the button still takes clicks, so a double click opened two copies (left-pane pages and most stacked center and right-pane pages on desktop, animated modals on Android). When a modal opens, the page it covers draws an empty pointerInput box over itself while it slides out; when a pane's first modal slides in, the empty page sliding out covers the view under the pane. The page sliding in already takes clicks, and nothing is blocked when a page closes.
