<br />
This change will result in Open & Save dialogs displaying {nav Detailed Tree View} by default instead of {nav Simple View} (which is being transformed into a primarily visual browsing mode; see the linked Maniphest Task for details).<br />
<br />
{nav Detailed Tree View} is better for content that is best located by its filename or metadata, which I would wager is more common, so it should be the default view. Also, bandwagon argument: Windows and GNOME both display the same view by default in their Open/Save dialogs now (macOS displays the navigation-friendly {Column View} by default</span>, <span style="padding: 0 2px; color: #333333; background: rgba(251, 175, 175, .7);">because other clients generally set their preferred view mode manually</span><span style="padding: 0 2px; color: #333333; background: rgba(151, 234, 151, .6);">which sadly lacks a KDE equivalent)</span>.<br />

Checked lxr to make sure that all clients specify a non-default view mode. Some need patching; those patches will be mentioned here:</span></div></div></div><br /><div><strong>REPOSITORY</strong><div><div>R241 KIO</div></div></div><br /><div><strong>REVISION DETAIL</strong><div><a href="https://phabricator.kde.org/D12327">https://phabricator.kde.org/D12327</a></div></div><br /><div><strong>To: </strong>ngraham, Frameworks, VDG, rkflx<br /><strong>Cc: </strong>abetts, Frameworks, michaelh, bruns<br /></div>
