Yes, it's possible, but no, I don't recommend doing that. The naming dialog was an ad-hoc solution and will be replaced by something (hopefully) better in future releases. Walter was working on it [1], but unfortunately it didn't get finished in time for 0.90. IMO the best way to implement this is by adding a button in the Activity toolbar (the one where you can also change the title) that brings you to the Journal details page. The Journal API for that has been in place for a long time already, all you need is the button. While we would include that button in sugar-toolkit in the future (if the others agree this is the best way to do it), you can just include that code inside your activity and have it working on older Sugar releases as well.
