Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When dumping is finished the window to enter Disc Information opens to foreground.

I had 2 times where the Disc Information window closed immediately because I pressed [enter] (or maybe [escape] or similar) that was intended for a different application in Windows. I did not want it to close but the window just popped up at the wrong moment and immediately handled the keyboard input to close the Disc Information window so I have to manually edit the values in !submissionInfo.txt (or start the dumping again).

Describe the solution you'd like
When the Disc Information window opens to foreground, block the input that closes the window like [esc] and [enter] for 0.5 second to prevent immediate unwanted closing of the window.

Additional context
It's just a minor issue and there probably are more important things

For anyone else who runs into this before any sort of proper change is made, try enabling the "Show Eject Reminder" option so that there's at least a buffer between the dump being done and the submission popping up.
