Nothing in the distro uses python-dialog. I think it should
be fine to update.
Don't forget that users might be depending on the version 2 API with
software they've written that is not included in the distro. If
upgrading to the version 3 API would break users that could be a
frustrating experience.
I don't have a horse in this specific race, but some package maintainers
have frustrated me when they upgrade packages that the software I write
depends on as part of a normal dnf upgrade. Backwards incompatible
changes should be reserved for Rawhide.
