It is very rough around the edges but I have working version at https://codeberg.org/rahguzar/filechooser. When I started I want to put the end result on Gnu Elpa (and that is why I am posting here, apologies if this isn't the right thing) but it has serious enough limitations that I don't know if it is a good idea. The limitations are detailed in the readme file. If you are feeling adventurous and want to try it out please let me know of your experience and suggestions/criticism. P.S. I would like to thank Michael Albinus for the dbus support in Emacs and especially `dbus-monitor` which was very useful in coming to grips with the maze that is dbus. Rahguzar
