------- Additional Comments From craig.mcclanahan@sun.com  2005-06-12 06:56 -------
My gut feel is that alternate entry points are like "go to" statements, when you
should really be using subdialogs ("gosub" statements in ancient BASIC
terminology) instead.  Like a method in most object oriented languages, a dialog
has a single entry point but possible multiple exit points ("return"
statements).  Violating this restriction implies that the caller has WAY too
much knowledge about the internals of the dialog to be using it safely.
