Bug Description
Impact
------
Ubuntu uses xdg-desktop-
This issue also affects gnome-text-editor which uses gtk4 directly.
Attempting to save a file to an empty folder won't work in many cases because the Save button is insensitive (unable to be clicked).
Test Case
---------
View this page with the Firefox or Chromium snaps.
Press Ctrl+S to try to save this page.
Navigate to a folder without any files in it. (It can have other folders in it.)
The Save button should stay lit up.
Save the file.
Note that I wasn't able to reproduce the bug for bookmarked folders in the left sidebar so just navigate using the main view area.
What Could Go Wrong
-------
This is a one-line bug fix from the stable gtk-4-6 branch targeted to directly fix this issue.
Other Notes
-----------
I do not believe we need to respin the Ubuntu 22.04 ISOs for this issue.
I do request a 0-day SRU since this is a small high impact fix that affects the usability of the Firefox snap.
