            Bug ID: 467460
           Summary: GTK_USE_PORTAL=1 fails to propagate the
                    org.FreeDesktop.portal.FileChooser setting
                    "current_folder"
    Classification: I don't know
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Kubuntu
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general

SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug
symbols.
See
https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set GTK_USE_PORTAL=1
2. Trigger the open file dialog for an application like Sublime Text which
explicitly sets the folder the file picker should open to
3. The requested folder is ignored and the last opened directory is opened by
default instead

OBSERVED RESULT
File picker always opens to the last opened folder

EXPECTED RESULT
File picker should open to the directory requested by the opening application

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux/KDE Plasma: Kubuntu 22.10
KDE Plasma Version: 5.25.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.98.0
Qt Version: 5.15.6

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

The GTK file chooser is awful. I'd be sooo happy if this would work as expected
so we could ditch GTK entirely.
