    I've been researching this in vain and do not believe it to be possible. Commented Jun 2, 2014 at 7:22

    Wouldn' t it be worth asking a new question targeted at gtk3, so the old question, its answers, etc., are easier to read and follow? Some may still be interested in such a track, and it would get somewhat confusing. Commented Jun 21, 2020 at 11:37
  • An edited question should ideally not invalidate any existing answers. Commented Jun 21, 2020 at 14:32

    @JeffSchaller & Martin Vegter I have updated the question to avoid invalidating the old one while keeping the focus on the updated version, roll back the last edit if it is not suitable to your question. In any case there was no answer neither for GTK2 nor for GTK3 as a correct solution require writing a patch. Commented Jun 21, 2020 at 16:38

    In Mozilla Firefox you can configure not to use the "system" file chooser but its own by setting ui.allow_platform_file_picker to false in the about:config window. I know this is only one program but better than nothing? Commented Jun 22, 2020 at 12:41
