I think that popping up a dialog should never change the tab.

You might think it is useful that, if the treaty dialog pops up, you want
to have the players tab in the background. I'd rather think this depends on
what the player does/want.

So, since it is easy to change to the players tab at any time, it shouldn't
be done automatically. Granting this gives the player maximum control over
what he sees, and this is necessary in busy games.
