Static non-scrolling panel at top of jQuery UI dialog

Static non-scrolling panel at top of jQuery UI dialog

It would be very helpful if an option could be provided for a static, non-scrolling panel at the top of dialogs, just under the title bar, and above the scrolling section.  I realize this would require adding another div, but I think the benefits could be very helpful.

The option would require that a height in pixels be provided, with a default of 0 to keep things consistent with current functioning.  Also, some way to specify the div for the panel would be needed.

I frequently have explanatory text at the top of dialogs that I would prefer not be scrolled off.  Additionally, I also sometimes put a navigation menu at the top of a dialog that I would prefer not be scrolled off.

I realize that I could probably put something together myself, but I believe the benefits of providing this as an option would be many.  Thank you for all your efforts!
