This is, of course, because the science dialog pops up modal - something
that is completely unnecessary now since AFAICT the server will give you
reasonable research even if you don't pick anything, and the dialog gets
updated properly if your science changes.

Attached is the patch I submitted for PR#137.  This should go in shortly
unless there are objections.
