"4.11.7 The dialog element"
http://www.w3.org/html/wg/drafts/html/master/interactive-elements.html#the-dialog-element

there is not currently a code example, add on with advice on placement of DIALOG in DOM scoped to body, so in case where called as a modal dialog all content except dialog is marked as inert.
also provide advice on desired keyboard behaviour:
move focus to dialog on open
move focus back to trigger control on close.
