        <pre>A (IJ1) macro calling showMessageWithCancel() is expected to terminate if the
user chooses "Cancel"
(<a href="http://imagej.nih.gov/ij/developer/macro/functions.html#showMessageWithCancel">http://imagej.nih.gov/ij/developer/macro/functions.html#showMessageWithCancel</a>).

In Fiji, however, macros continue to run after pressing "Cancel". Example:

showMessageWithCancel("In IJ1 a macro exits when the user clicks 'Cancel'");
showMessage("But not in Fiji (unless it runs from the IJ1 editor)");

Running the above in the buil-in editor (e.g., Plugins>New>Text Window) works
as expected.

Probably not a major issue, but it will likely break some macros down the road.</pre>
