The only reason dialog suddenly shipped is because browsers want to remove alert/popup/confirm.

Until last year the spec for dialog was in such a state that Chrome (the only ones implementing it) argued that it should be removed.

IIRC literally none of the issues were fixed but suddenly it got shipped in all browsers.
