Hello,
There is already a prototype which supports file dialogs:

There are a few issues that I know of and it might have broken by the changes in the latest xdg-desktop-portal version but I plan to look into it soon.
Ah, good news.
I use the KDE portal and having KDE file picker dialogs is so comforting to avoid the nightmare of GTK file pickers.
I think the original KDE 3 (and now TDE) file picker is a tad more usable than the current KDE file picker, but GTK file pickers are grounds for torches and pitch forks. :)
Thanks.
Is the XDG file picker the thing that pops up that ugly password prompt for privileged commands? KDE3 and Trinity have a nicer one built in: just edit the application icon and in the Application tab, Advanced option, activate Run as a different user without a username (which defaults to root). Some (e.g. Konqueror - File Manager - Super User Mode) already have it set. See attachments.
