Summary	0004655: Loading of DICOM data using scripts is not robust
Description	In DICOM module, widget and logic are intertwined. When trying to import and load DICOM data, some GUI classes must be used as well, which may lead to warning or informational popups displayed - essentially blocking script execution. See for example this user complaint: https://discourse.slicer.org/t/load-dicom-via-python-and-ignore-warnings-detected-during-load-dialog/4672 DICOM import and loading should be available without relying on any GUI classes.
