Modals! Modals modals modals modals modals.

For the love of St. Nicholas, PLEASE we need to be able to open a "mini-interface" modal from a dynamic link or button. BONUS- this same component could be used to replace confirmation screens with something where we can apply text formatting and line breaks! It's basically the record action as dialog box, but useable for very common usecases without jumping through extra hoops! Please and thank you and you're welcome.
