Dedicated window for Dired mode in Emacs?

My emacs behave more or less the way I want using this common elisp bit:

(defun toggle-current-window-dedication ()
 (interactive)
 (let* ((window    (selected-window))
        (dedicated (window-dedicated-p window)))
   (set-window-dedicated-p window (not dedicated))
   (message "Window %sdedicated to %s"
            (if dedicated "no longer " "")
            (buffer-name))))

(global-set-key [pause] 'toggle-current-window-dedication)

Unfortunately, dired uses a directory for the name of the buffer, so selecting a window only dedicates it to this directory. When you move up or down, it opens a new buffer in a separate window. What I would like to do is to select the window in the main mode (in this case step-by-step), and all the new buffers that by default for this mode prefer this window. Is it possible?
