How much filesystem permissions are too much?

Ah ok. Got it

I am now leaning on the possibility that the xfce-specific implementation of desktop portal might be different.

I do however seem to have these installed:

`

xdg-desktop-portal-1.20.3 xdg-desktop-portal-gnome-48.0 xdg-desktop-portal-gtk-1.15.3 xdg-user-dirs-0.18 xdg-user-dirs-gtk-0.14 xdg-utils-1.2.1-r9

`

But still there is the case where a user needs to access ~/.var residing files– that possibly the app saved them there– using the normal file manager.be it thunar or nautilus or dolphin etc. In that case the facilitation of the app to have a dedicated folder and only one in a more prominent location would be very welcome. I mean still devs can use copy-path dialogs to be pasted in a file manager but that is a bit awkward.

In any case thank you for taking the time to reply to me with such detail and clarity.

I really appreciate it.

Thanks again.
