Thanks again for the hints.
In the meantime I have found out that it seems like legacyScreenSaver under 
macOS 10.15.0 does not have the right entitlements.
I get this log message:

legacyScreenSaver: (AppKit) [com.apple.AppKit:OpenSavePanels] ERROR: Unable to 
display open panel: your app is missing the User Selected File Read app sandbox 
entitlement. Please ensure that your app's target capabilities include the 
proper entitlements.

which makes [NSOpenPanel runModal] return immediately with 
NSModalResponseCancel, at least that is what happens.

Is there anything I can do about it?

As far as I understand, the entitlements are predefined by legacyScreenSaver, 
not by my screensaver (which is kind of a plugin in legacyScreenSaver, if i 
understand correctly).

Best regards, Gabriel
