When using a DialogFragment, if you want to get a LayoutInflater, you should always call the getLayoutInflater() method from Fragment.

Using LayoutInflater.from(Context) can return a LayoutInflater that does not have the correct theme.

It would be nice if there was a lint rule, that caught all calls to LayoutInflater.from(Context) and suggested to use getLayoutInflater() instead.

Assigned to jb...@google.com.

Fails for UrlFetches to far-away places like China. Making it configurable would be useful -- or reporting it as an actual timeout would help as well.
