Parent native file dialogs to the requesting window#1719
Merged
Conversation
showOpenDialog/showSaveDialog were called without a parent BrowserWindow, so on Linux the native file/folder browser could open behind the DIVE window instead of in front of it. Derive the window from the IPC sender and pass it through so the dialog is parented and modal.
