Research direction

Start with the add plate modal and the linked discussion in PR 468, since no source file or test is named. Determine the expected behavior for hiding the modal, preventing reopening, and showing a waiting message; the issue is done when those states are agreed and covered by the modal's behavior.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

This issue is a spinout of this comment. In brief, it is to explore when the plate modal should be hidden vs. blocking re-opening of the modal vs. presenting to the user a "waiting" message for operations that may run for a reasonable length of time.
