## Context When the dev container creation modal is showing "Creating Dev Container", clicking anywhere on the workspace backdrop dismisses the dialog. The container creation continues in the background, but the user loses visual feedback and the subsequent `open_remote_project` call may fail because the modal entity is gone. This adds an `allow_dismissal` flag to `RemoteServerProjects` that blocks accidental dismissal (backdrop clicks, focus loss) while a dev container is being created, but allows explicit dismissal on success or error. ## How to Review Small PR — two files changed: 1. **`remote_servers.rs`** (the fix): `allow_dismissal` bool field added, set to `false` when entering Creating state, set to `true` before emitting `DismissEvent` on success/error. `on_before_dismiss` override checks the flag. 2. **`recent_projects.rs`** (the test): Regression test that opens a dev container modal, simulates a backdrop click, and asserts the modal stays open. ## Self-Review Checklist - [x] I've reviewed my own diff for quality, security, and reliability - [x] Unsafe blocks (if any) have justifying comments - [x] The content is consistent with the [UI/UX checklist](https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/blob/main/CONTRIBUTING.md#uiux-checklist) - [x] Tests cover the new/changed behavior - [x] Performance impact has been considered and is acceptable Release Notes: - Fixed dev container creation modal being dismissed when clicking outside it --------- Co-authored-by: Claude Opus 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
