I know users have complained about this with jquery ui dialog, but I'm having the same issue with twitter bootstraps modal. I attached a demo file that you can see that its preventing the ckeditor dialogs from working correctly.
I really hope CKEditor can get this figured out, I'm simply lost on what to do.
Thanks.
edit:
I found a hack that seems to work for now, but a more formal fix would be nice.
Heh... We're seeing many
Heh... We're seeing many complains about jQuery UI and Bootstrap not working with CKEditor (or vice versa - depends on POV) all the time. Unfortunately it seems that those frameworks totally mess focus handling which is absolutely crucial for CKEditor. In our opinion they shouldn't do so or should provide an API allowing to make some exceptions for special elements like the CKEditor UI. AFAICS all solutions for these kind of problems are hacks, not a nice and clean fixes which CKEditor could propose as the "integration package". We haven't got enough time though to investigate this properly and hit those projects with bug reports. But we remember about all this and as soon as we'll find enough time, we'll investigate it.

If I'm correct Twitter uses
If I'm correct Twitter uses jQuery and this issue falls under same category as http://dev.ckeditor.com/ticket/10269.
There is a fix for jQuery mentioned in http://dev.ckeditor.com/ticket/10269?cversion=2&cnum_hist=11#comment:16, perhaps same could be applied for Twitter.
From what i see in jQuery issue they have marked ticket as valid but won't fix it directly-
"I'm marking as valid, but we're not going to fix this directly in jQuery UI because we feel that this is bad UX."
Instead method was provided which can be used to work around this issue.
