What has lightbox: been replaced with?

Hi - I was refreshing my memory on seaside (hence previous questions) - and there are a few decent tutorials still kicking around (and possibly we could convince people to update them).

I remembered that the PotsDam one was pretty good in the day - so was following that - and loaded up the tutorial code in Pharo 6.1 (and it mostly runs - but there are a few things that aren’t quite right).

However, one thing that has changed a  lot (I think) is the use of scriptaculous and Jquery - is the former now deprecated? As in the tutorial they have a component that does: self lightbox: <aComponent>

I can’t find any reference to lightbox in the image apart from a test that creates a jQuery dialog box - can I easily recreate the #lightbox: method using this?

I can see how you can render a jQuery new dialog - but you need a canvas to render on, and it seems that this old method must have done something with tasks - does anyone remember how this used to work (it seems a good learning for me in fixing this anyway).
