A Dialog or JDialog always has a Frame as its parent (or as grand-parent, or
as grand-grand-parent, or ...). See the javadoc of the dialog constructors.
And even if Java might allow you to construct a Dialog with a null parent,
then Java creates an invisble Frame behind the scenes to become the parent.
In short: the technique will catch all your dialogs, too.
