Comment 15 for bug 1774121

This issue as reported 13 years ago is still present as initially reported.

I experience it in Gnome 3 on Fedora 37. Other applications are able to provide a normal 'Save as' dialogue box - it would be nice if Thunderbird could fix this. Unexpected behaviour like this means I have to explain to new staff why Thunderbird is doing something weird and it reduces the appeal of switching from proprietary software to open source.

In addition to the jarring 'Open' button I can not navigate my filesystem by typing the first few characters of the directory that I want to enter.
