This would be great to bring into my skill set.
I need to start with a simple example:
Can I change the colour of a rectangle with a dialog box?
This could be added to blocks as a simple example.
Some inspiration here:
http://bl.ocks.org/mbostock/3943967
changes the type of graph using a dialog box.
Brief thought - is dialog box the right word?
Checking http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dialog_box maybe not!
Another nice D3 example here: http://vallandingham.me/vis/gates/
Some kind of radio switch is probably a better word.
First script to try:
Just get the dialog box on the web page.
I have done that and made it change the colour of a rectangle.
Code:

// It's good practice to generate an svg container that is as large as we need.
var svgContainer = d3.select("body")
.append("svg")
.attr("width", 400)
.attr("height", 400);
// This creates a rectangle.
var rectangle = svgContainer.append("rect")
.attr("x", 100)
.attr("y", 100)
.attr("height", 100)
.attr("width", 100)
.style("fill", "blue");
d3.selectAll("input").on("change", change);
var timeout = setTimeout(function() {
d3.select("input[value=\"color\"]")
.property("checked", true)
.each(change);
}, 2000);
function change() {
clearTimeout(timeout);
if (this.value === "red") transitionRed();
if (this.value === "blue") transitionBlue();

}
function transitionRed() {
var rectangle = svgContainer.append("rect")
