Is there remaining work for this feature request. Support for predictive back in Dialogs would allow Material3 to remove some Dialog forks and would be very helpful!

Yeah, we probably want to investigate new API shapes here to take advantage of predictive back. No work ongoing yet though, needs prioritization

(recapping my chat with Ian)
The tricky part is that the onDismissRequest
is really the final signal and a chance for the app to just say 'nope, I don't want the dialog to dismiss' (since they own the state of 'should the dialog be shown or not' simply by either adding the Dialog to composition or leaving out of composition) - that's the just-in-time problem that the comment talks about. It would be very odd to have any kind of progress animation that doesn't actually lead to the dialog being dismissed when it is committed"
so really it needs to be a more holistic look at how to do dialogs and swap from a binary state (shown/not shown) to something that actually has something in between for cases like predictive back
Description
Ian raised the point that the shape of the dialog and popup API (onDismissRequest) doesn't really work in a predictive back world, since the API will be called after an animation has shown to the user that dismiss is in progress. Popup also doesn't handle predictive back at all right now, there's a small fix in aosp/2886766 to at least let the popup dismiss normally when predictive back is enabled.
This also leads to questions as to how we can commonize these APIs in an MPP world.
