> As much as I could understand so far of our interactions there, we delegate handling of the file picker to GTK, and we have no direct notion of the "original good" path that users might expect (e.g, `smb://server/share/Path`) and what we get back from the file picker has been processed by the XDG portal and we only get the Portal's Document folder, i.e., `/run/user/<UID>/doc/<DOCID>/`. I dont know how much we can fix there.

FF does know the original good path, because I can enter it manually in about:config. But it doesn't use it for subsequent downloads.
