In order to use portals, the Libreoffice upstream source needs to change their file dialogs to the newer gtk native APIs:

https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/gtk3-GtkFileChooserNative.html

So instead of using GtkFileChooserDialog, we should implement GtkFileChooserNative.

Since this is needed for the snap, we should submit a patch upstream refactoring their class to implement these changes. I think this would be very to good to have eventually but not a super high priority so marking this as a wishlist item.
