**Blender Version** Broken: 2.77a and Worked: (optional) **Short description of error** Calls to `self.report()` from the modal operator are not shown in the UI, when that modal operator is called from a non-modal operator. Furthermore, there is a difference in console output: Modal operator called from space-menu: **Exact steps for others to reproduce the error** Based on a (as simple as possible) attached .blend file with minimum amount of steps

**Blender Version** Broken: 2.77a and **Description of error** Calls to `self.report()` from the modal operator are not shown in the UI, when that modal operator is called from a non-modal operator. This makes it difficult to communicate with the user from long-running operators. Furthermore, there is a difference in console output: Modal operator called from space-menu: - only the last call to self.report() is shown on the console, after the operator has stopped running. Modal operator called from non-modal operator: - all calls to self.report() are shown, after the operator has stopped running. **Exact steps for others to reproduce the error** 1. Open the attached blend file and run its script: {F318380} 2. Press SPACE in the 3d viewport (under the text editor) and choose 'Modal operator -- run me first'. 3. See a `self.report({'INFO'})` with decreasing counter appear four times, for counter=3, 2, 1, 0. 4. Inspect the console output, and see that there are four log entries one second apart, and below that only one Info line from `self.report({'INFO'})` with counter=0, which was printed after the modal operator was stopped. 5. Press SPACE in the 3d viewport and choose 'Non-modal operator -- run me second'. 6. Press the 'OK' button or hit Enter. 7. See the `self.report({'INFO'})` from the non-modal operator, but **not** from the modal operator it calls. 8. Inspect the console output, and see that there are four log entries one second apart, and below that four Info lines from `self.report({'INFO'})` with counter=3, 2, 1, 0, which were printed after the modal operator was stopped.
