Description

There is at least one dialog that doesn’t gracefully deal with certain errors during the dialog initialization phase, see this review thread.

We should revisit our dialogs and ensure that they gracefully display any errors that may occur during dialog initialization. (I.e., network failure, auth failure, etc.)

Research direction

Start with the linked review thread to identify the dialog and initialization failure described there. Review the other dialogs for similar initialization paths and define graceful error display for network and authentication failures; done means those errors are handled consistently across the affected dialogs.
