This is due to this code :

http://lxr.kde.org/source/extragear/graphics/kipi-plugins/flickrexport/plugin_flickrexport.cpp#143

dialog is already in memory. We don't recreate it. It's displayed as
well, but list have been cleaned previously when dialog have been
closed (and this point is fine).

Problem : the current selection is not loaded in this case... It
simple to fix...
