I'm not going to start a discussion on this, and feel free to ignore the 
following question. But if you do have some time, I'd be curious about in how 
far you "rely" on this default.

Indeed. And in RKWard on Windows, I encountered a couple of those, too (and 
reported them on bugs.kde.org). In the end, I added the following to the 
startup code (simplified):

	KConfigGroup cg = KGlobal::config ().data ()->group ("KFileDialog 
Settings");
	if (cg.readEntry ("Native", true)) {
			cg.writeEntry ("Native", false);
			cg.sync ();
	}

So, in case other projects are encountering hard-to-work-around issues with 
the native dialogs: That will get rid of them.
