Too hard answer to a simple question, I don't have any lack of imagination, 
moreover I'm full of it. I try to follow KISS principles when designing a 
system, not only to "try to solve it as soon as possible, no matter the way 
and without thinking about future problems ..."

For example, one of the uses of dialog module is to "limit" the number of 
concurrent dialogs allowed to a certain user (using some kind of "profiling" 
for example), so ... if dialog module does not handle correctly early dialogs 
and forking, how could I use it in an enviroment where I could have lot of 
UAC's registered with the same credentials? it's imposible, because dialog 
module will do a mesh with the parallel forking.
It's just an example, there could be lot of them.

One way to improve the module is to let developers known REAL limitations on 
other enviroments more than the ones they usualy work on. Testing it's other 
way to help ... as far as I know, and that is what I do.
It wasn't my intention "to throw shit over a fan", as you said. Just to let 
you know where problems are. This is free software, so it's up to you if you 
want to implement it/solve it or let the module as it is now and let others 
(like me) fix that part, but you have to be open to criticize, if not ... 
better not to expose yourself to the open world.
I don't mean you have to "eat all the people throw you", I just mean that you 
have to be open minded.
