0004467: Replace pop-ups by Ajax boxes (dialogs)

DescriptionNowadays, Openbravo ERP uses pop-ups for items and processes options selectors, process launchers, help, etc...

In some cases, they are well used. For instance, one wants Help pop-up window to display in addition to application one.

But, in many cases, pop-up window is displaying an action that does not require the use of the main window. In these cases, if one clicks on the main window, pop-up window is closed (good behaviour). For these cases, main window could be disabled ("greyed") using an Ajax dialog box such as:
* Lightbox [1] (examples [2])
* Thickbox [3] (examples [4])
* Greybox [5] (examples [6])

Pop-up windows have some disadvantages like:
* Can be blocked by pop-up blockers.
* Opens more web browser instances.

Steps To Reproduce1) Go to 'Information' (on the bottom of the menu) and open the 'Project' selector.
2) Once in, press the 'Business Partner' icon.

There are now 2 pop-up windows plus the main one: ugly behaviour.
