Windows filesystem mount point directories are not shown in the filepicker. You have to show hidden files to show them. That's wrong because a filesystem mountpoint isn't a hidden file. Also i had to triple check why the mount isn't showing up, and verify with the terminal that the mount is indeed there. Showing hidden files was a wild guess and is not intuitive. To reproduce: # 1. Mount Windows filesystem /dev/sdw to /media/test mount /dev/sdw /media/test # 2. Open /media in the file picker Expected: Directory test should be shown. Actual: No directory called test is shown. Workaround: Enable hidden files to show test directory
