DialogControl

Abstract base class for easily managing dialog controls in an application.

This class provides core functionality to handle the lifecycle of dialogs, including opening, closing, and destruction. Subclasses must implement onOpen and onClose methods to define specific behavior when the dialog is requested to open or close.
