Hmmm this is just my humble opinion but I'm not a fan of dialog in spells.
It's to me annoying.

I would prefer to have:
config_query NETTOOLS_CONFIG "Do you want to reconfigure" y
if [[ $NETTOOLS_CONFIG == y ]]
then
config_query NETTOOLS_CONFIG_GUI "Use dialog configuration question?" n
  if [[ $NETTOOLS_CONFIG_GUI == y ]]
  then
    do the dialog magic
  fi
else
give me the normal questions
fi


Just my suggestion... I'd like this seen in all spells that use dialog.
