---------------------------------------------------------------

After launching the download job, we do the following:

{code}

		IProgressService progressService= PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getProgressService();
		Shell sh = PlatformUI.getWorkbench().getActiveWorkbenchWindow().getShell();
		progressService.showInDialog(sh, downloadJob);
{code}

Eclipse just refuses to open  the progress dialog while the preference page is open. 

If I use a "New Shell" entirely, then you can't click "Run in Background" until you close the preference page, despite the preference page being behind the progress monitor dialog, so using a new shell is also not acceptable. 

If I use the active shell from the download-runtimes wizard, then we run into our initial problem, that the progress monitor dialog is opened and closed immediately such that it feels like it goes to background without even displaying. 

No idea how to fix this or wtf is going wrong.

> When you download a new runtime through Preferences -> JBoss Tools -> Runtime Detection -> Download, after you select the type and set everything, once the download starts, it goes to background immediately.
> I think it's confusing.
> I would suggest that the download progress is shown and there is a button "Run in background".
