Currently, the Swing JFileChooser is used. This is not optimal in many situations since expected features are missing. Only in situations where special functionality (like restricted file system view & navigation) is used, the Swing JFileChooser should be used.

- native dialogs are not always possible since they are not as flexible
  as the Swing dialogs. In these cases, the Swing dialog will be used
  instead

Unfortunately, modal JavaFX in Swing applications don't seem to be possible right now :( We will probably leave the native option in the preferences. Let's see what users think...
