See http://dl.dropbox.com/u/9719672/misc/simpledialog-zindexbug.png

I fixed this by overriding a few styles in my code:

.ui-simpledialog-container {
z-index: 10001 !important;
}
.ui-simpledialog-screen-modal {
z-index: 10000 !important;
}

(basically the zindex needs to be higher than what jquery mobile uses for the fixed header and footer, which is 1000 at least with jqm1.1)
