Description
Dialogs, especially platform-created file pickers, are a feature from Druid that was ripped out when I wrote Masonry and haven't added back in yet.
Part of the code is still in the codebase, commented out, taunting me.
Ideally, I would want the Masonry implementation to use the promise feature, but this is a more complicated task than it might appear.

Research direction
Start by locating the commented-out dialog implementation mentioned in the issue and review how Masonry currently handles its promise feature. Determine the platform-created file picker requirements and how the Druid behavior should map to Masonry. Done means dialogs, especially file pickers, are restored with the intended promise-based integration.
