drawer attached to modal window is unresponsive

I'm working on a plugin that needs to do some involved setup, and I'm 
handling this in a modal window since the setup has to be done in an 
atomic fashion. The window also has an attached drawer. What I'm 
finding is that I can open and close the drawer, and a table view in 
the drawer will scroll if I move a scroll wheel while the mouse is 
over the table, but if I click on any of the controls in the drawer, 
I just hear a beep instead of having something useful happen.

Is this expected behavior? Is there any way to allow the drawer to 
process user events or should I give up on the drawer?
