Description
The current implementation of the date pickers is heavily tied to Fragments. I'd like to use the date picker inside a Conductor controller.
It would be great if you leave it up to the consumer and just expose a regular Dialog instead of tying the implementation on fragments.

Research direction
Start by tracing the current date picker Fragment implementation and its public entry points. Check how it can expose a regular Dialog for use from a Conductor controller without requiring a Fragment. Done means consumers can choose the Dialog-based presentation while existing date-picker behavior remains usable.
