    Turns out that this suffers from the same errors and limitations as AlertDialog. So the fix I posted is good, but the issue originally reported is effectively a duplicate of TIMOB-19065 Windows just throws an exception when you try to open a message dialog with "too many" buttons. It appears that limit on the phone is effectively 2 buttons, any more and it throws a runtime exception. Obviously that sucks. We may need to look into alternate implementations using some other UI widgets that allow for more options.

    Could we proactively detect this situation and throw a friendlier error?

    Verified the fix. Instead of an exception the list is truncates to 2. We get this in the logs: 
    [ERROR] :  Number of buttons exceeds platform maximum (2), list will be truncated.
