   Well, there's behavioural compatibility and API compatibility.  I'd be 
curious to see which tests failed?  The return options that would have the same 
identity should not appear together.  Unless someone did some really weird 
things with custom options.
   
   The harder part would be internally differentiating at places like 
https://github.com/apache/netbeans/blob/master/platform/core.windows/src/org/netbeans/core/windows/services/NbPresenter.java#L664
 which would have to then take option type into account, slightly changing the 
existing semantics.  Or never accepting `Yes` or `No`, which matches the API 
anyway!  
https://bits.netbeans.org/25/javadoc/org-openide-dialogs/org/openide/DialogDescriptor.html#DialogDescriptor-java.lang.Object-java.lang.String-boolean-java.lang.Object:A-java.lang.Object-int-org.openide.util.HelpCtx-java.awt.event.ActionListener-
   
   If we're happy to lose the integer relationship, which is already a minor 
behavioural incompatibility, surely five distinct Strings would be enough?
