Custom granite components for Touch UI dialogs

Avatar

Level 2
Has anyone written custom granite components for AEM6.0 dialogs?

1. I want to have a custom dropdown which fetches options from the components design node.

2. I want a textfield to save vanitypath in page properties so that it places current page name automatically before the text.
 
I have these as ExtJs custom xtypes but I am trying to develop dialogs with granite components as well.

Thanks for the links Scott!

I have a further question.

In AEM5.6.1, I populate style options in an edit dialog by calling a servlet that simply returns the values configured by components' design dialog.

Now, since we do not have design dialogs in touch UI, will it be wise to have these configurations on design dialog?

Are there any other options?
