Screenshot of the dialog. Notice the wider dialog (self signed cert warning) being shown under the top dialog (where the access protocol and remote url are set)

SUMMARY

When attempting to add a DAV groupware resource that has a self signed certificate, a warning dialog shows up but its under two modal DAV Resource configuration Dialogs, preventing you from acknowledging the self signed certificate and adding the resource. 

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Spin up a radicale CalDAV server with a self signed certificate
2. Open Kontact
3.  Go to Settings -> Configure KOrganizer
4. Go to General -> Calendars
5. Click Add
6. Select DAV Groupware Resource
7. Enter username and password for radicale server spun up
8. Select configure resource manually
9. Under server Configuration, click add
10. Select CalDAV as the access protocol and under remote URL enter the https url to your radicale server with self signed cert
11. Click Fetch under discovered collections

OBSERVED RESULT
A dialog will appear stating that the server failed the authenticity check
Notice that you cannot click cancel or continue, because it is below the two previous modal dialogs

EXPECTED RESULT
The failed authenticity check dialog should show up as the topmost modal dialog, allowing you to click continue, override the warning and add your server with a self signed certificate

Indeed not Flatpak related
