Another possibility is that on saving, kile uses KFileDialog::getSaveUrl() 
with a non-local, not empty startdir parameter, such as a kfiledialog://-url. 
Look at kfile/kfiledialog.cpp for details of when KFileDialog dispatches to 
QFileDialog. (And, BTW, personally, I think native filedialogs work 
surprisingly well, but should _not_ be the default).
