It's self-contained enough not to really need to live in dialog.c as a
set of static functions. Also, moving it means we can isolate the
implementation details - which also makes it easy to change them.
One such change is that I've added the ability to bake a context
pointer into the dialog - unused so far, but it will be shortly.
(Also, while I'm here, renamed the functions so they sound more as if
they're adding features than working around bugs - not to mention not
imputing mental illness to the usual versions.)
