You still cannot just add a QWidget to a native dialog. Qt would need to add
elaborate wrapper APIs around those native functions to enable you to add some
custom content.

This bug report was about embedding random dialogs into random other dialogs.
Constructing your own file chooser using KDirNavigator and whatever they are
called is a valid and supported use-case.

Also, judging from the bug report the same happens with the GTK file dialog and
others. Moreover, Scribus unconditionally disables native dialogs on all
patforms, it's not specific to Plasma, as it can't be done.

Closing this now, as it's really out of scope for KDE, and more of a Qt
architectural problem.
