--- Comment #6 from Timothée Ravier <travier at redhat.com> ---
Due to how Flatpak portals work, they require explicit user permission to be
able to open a folder.
When opening Filelight from Dolphin, it would have to re-request to the user to
select the folder to open in order to allow Filelight to access it.

Granting permissions to Fileight does not do what you want because it does not
trully grant it access to the folder underneath, only a limited view of it. For
example, granting home access does not grant access to `~/.var/`.
