XDG Desktop Portal 1.19.0 released — The desktop integration portal for Linux

github.com Release 1.19.0 · flatpak/xdg-desktop-portal

ImportantThis was the first release of xdg-desktop-portal made using automation. If you found any issues with it, please let us know. Completely rework and restructure the documentation website. ...

Add a new «GetHostPaths» method to the Document portal, which allows mapping file descriptors to paths on the host system. This can be used by apps to show more meaningful file paths in the user interface.

Looking forward to this. If you’ve been bothered by /run file paths in Flatpak apps before, you should do so as well, because this finally enables apps to show the «real» path instead.
