Okay. As "release manager", I respect that you do not wish to maintain
two packages rather than one. The package is
"virtually" accepted, on principle.

I havent pushed it just yet, because it would be silly to release it
now, and then re-release depending on the answer to the following
question.

Speaking as "just another maintainer", would you please be willing to
make a very minor mod to your package, and make /opt/csw/bin/dialog be
under alternatives? I plan to make a native-curses package of dialog,
and it would be cleaner to have integration that way.
