   So if I understand correctly, if the native browser select box is opened, and `alert` is called, the alert dialog opens (which is thread blocking until it is dismissed) but it isn't visible because it's displayed under the select modal?
   
   Since you're dealing with native browser UI, this smells like a browser bug. I would try your test case with pure safari using https://jsfiddle.net/ or something.
   
   Potential workaround is to not rely on the browser alert dialog and use the [dialogs plugin](https://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/latest/reference/cordova-plugin-dialogs/) instead, which is non-blocking asynchronous.
