ContentDialog disappears when showing StatusBar

Question

I've got a strange behavior when showing a ContentDialog. When the dialog is on screen and I drag the StatusBar down, the dialog disappears.

private ContentDialog _connectivityDialog = new ContentDialog { IsPrimaryButtonEnabled = false, IsSecondaryButtonEnabled = false, Title = "Test"};

Somewhere I just call _connectivityDialog.ShowAsync();

Any idea why this happens?

I found the solution while investigating for another problem:

BackButton dismisses the dialog.

Solution:

_connectivityDialog.Closing += (sender, args) =>
            {
                args.Cancel = true;
            };

But be aware that the Hide()-Method is also affected. You can do a workaround like on this post: How to prevent the ContentDialog from closing when home key is pressed in Windows phone 8.1..?
