You're forgetting that apps can and do customize the file dialog a bit.
They do that with the the print dialog even more so --- see e.g. html-specific 
settings, syntax highlighting settings in kate, etc. And, IMHO, it would be 
awful if we lost functionality for /our/ platform to support ports to non-KDE 
desktops.
