Just noticed today that you cannot launch a modal from within a modal frame. Is that intended? It doesn't stop you from adding a Modal control in the first place, just the button doesn't work.

Can I launch legacy modals from new modal frames?

Our plan is to deprecate is to ultimately deprecate the legacy modals. I would instead recommend creating another modal frame that is opened from a button within the first modal frame.
