How do I check if a dialog is still open or not?

Not sure if this is a helpful answer, but the latest version fixes
earlier bugs if you open it while it's already open. In other words,
it doesn't do anything in that situation.

If you need this info for some reason besides that, you could check
for a visible item with one of the fundamental dialog classes, or some
content of yours that you know will be inside the dialog.

Actually it was because I added some code to trigger a "beforeclose"
event and since jquery always returns itself I couldn't be returned
whether the event returned false or not. I realized what I wanted to
do I could do in the "close" event. Although I can see needing to
easily check if one is opened or not for the future. I saw
"this.isOpen" set throughout the code but I couldn't figure out how to
access it from outside the plugin, exposing that boolean flag would be
very nice.

There are a few ways to do it, the original way was something like:

$("#dialog").parents(".ui-dialog").is(":visible")

With the newer version you can also do $("#dialog").data("dialog").isOpen
