The problem is, this is not really a dialog, it's a menu. We don't
yet support dialogs on Windows; the code to do that is #ifdef'ed away,
presumably because it isn't finished yet. Volunteers are welcome to
work on that, but I don't think such changes should be done before the
release.

The menu only has YES and NO, so that's what is displayed.
