FWIW, http://search.cpan.org/src/KCK/UI-Dialog-1.08/lib/UI/Dialog.pod
is a perl-based front end for Zenity, XDialog, GDialog, KDialog,
CDialog, and Whiptail.
So I'm not the first to notice there's a need for something
like this. (Depending on Perl and CPAN isn't really an option
for a xdg-dialog, though, I think.)
And
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-patches/2006-October/003363.html
is an example of makework caused by the lack of a unified dialog
interface (in this case, they tried to support
both zenity and xdialog, then ripped out the zenity support).
