Agree, but we as developers can have an impact in this, especially in smaller companies. I've managed to "bark up the ladder" sufficiently to prevent people from mindlessly adding those popups before, and I'm sure others have too.
But those companies have all been companies where user experience is pretty high up on the priority ladder, so it's been easy cases to make.
