Delete custom dialog via Application Designer UI

I have a custom dialog in the Classifications application that I created manually in ASSETCAT.XML (via XML export-->Notepad-->XML import).

Screenshot: https://i.stack.imgur.com/67plY.png

As mentioned, I did need to create that dialog via XML. However, now that the dialog exists, it looks like I can edit it via the Application Designer UI (which is handy -- I didn't realize that was possible).


Question:

Could IBM provide a way to delete custom dialogs via the Application Designer UI?

I know it's possible to delete the custom dialog via XML. But I it seems strange that I can edit the dialog via the UI, but not delete it.

And for what it's worth, Control Desk had a way to delete dialogs from the UI in Application Designer. Why didn't that functionality make it to core Maximo?

    There are no plans to address this in the next several releases.
