I hit this problem a few years ago and decided that the added
complexity of trying to reuse dialogs wasn't worth the effort -
development, debugging and maintenance would have been a nightmare.

It was easier to copy/paste the dialog code and the person who took
over the project after me was easily able to understand what was going
on.
