I do not think Peff means the dialog must ask these three items at the same time. The point is that other codepaths know they need to ask them and would benefit if they can instruct the dialog external helper to ask them in a single interaction. So if your callsite does not ask them together, it is OK. You can keep asking them separately in two dialog interactions. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
