Stuff like multiple buttons, textfields, etc in a single dialog could be handy.

Are dialogs hidden by textdraws, or are they always on top? If so, you could simply add "textfield buttons" that open up an old text input dialog, to enter the content of that textfield. Not a perfect solution, but a quite intuitive one imo.

or create a plugin to get the full list of players pressed keys.
i was going to do that but then something else came up.

That will need client plugin software, that people would need to download. For everyone not using that client software the dialogs wouldnt work, that would be quite sucky.

Textdraws go under dialogs. I wanted to make a login box (See my textdraw editor project: /imageshack/img72/7850/loginboxx.png) but abandoned the idea for this reason, it's a shame we can't specify the Z-index of elements like the dialog boxes, chatbox, etc.. ourselves--though that would be a good idea for a next update.

And in that case you could switch back to normal dialogs. I think somebody should really make a key detecting plugin and that it should be promoted quite a bit around SA-MP
