Bug Description
Using 3.7 from the official on KDE (on Kubuntu if it matters).
I've noticed that the new version use a different, native file dialog as opposed to the previous versions. However it seems, it is initialized incorrectly, as it is opens up, with the followings:
"
Name: --multiple
Filter: /previous/file/path
"
Unfortunately, the file list shows my ~/Documents directory as a directory tree, without any files. So I can't add any new books to calibre.
I have to manually clear the filter field, to see the file list. And I have to re-navigate back to the last used directory manually. Which both found a bit annoying.

Works fine on my KDE system. Probably kdialog on your system is too old.
Post the output of running
kdialog --help
in a terminal on your system. Annoylingly kdialog has a useless version
number, so I have to rely on parsing the output of --help to detect
functionality.
