| 2. Create a `/usr/share/xdg-desktop-portal/labwc-portals.conf` with the line `org.freedesktop.impl.portal.FileChooser=none` |

May be better to advise to create a configuration file in the current user home (https://flatpak.github.io/xdg-desktop-portal/docs/portals.conf.html) based on https://github.com/labwc/labwc/blob/master/data/labwc-portals.conf with the mentioned addition.
Chances are there that a system configuration file already exists, at least that is how Labwc is packaged for Fedora.

Okay. Good suggestions. Only read this after below fixup. Will carry on tomorrow.

Also, since it is a GTK issue, and gtk apps are in all the wayland compositors, maybe portals.conf would be preffered instead of labwc-portals.conf. I agree about the file location, preferring ~/.config/xdg-desktop-portal/ ($XDG_CONFIG_HOME/xdg-desktop-portal/, as mentioned in the link shared).
Not sure if the issue happens in other compositors, its just a suggestion.
