We're seeing some people try and use ```data-role="dialog"``` which isn't a valid role yet in the framework. You make a dialog by linking with ```data-rel="dialog"``` on a link but in non-ajax situations, people must be trying this instead. The dialog role results in a blank page because it's not valid today.

For 1.1 we can try and re-work the navigations script to support ```data-role="dialog"``` so dialog appearance can work in non-Ajax nav situations. This is mostly the same as the normal page enhancements, but the dialog classes to give it an inset appearance need to be support the normal dialog config attributes for the overlay swatch and such.
