In order to improve Flatpak compatibility, instead of using --filesystem=home, it would be better to use GtkFileChooserNative.

GtkFileChooserNative would also enable MacOS users to use the native system dialog. The disadvantage of this dialog is that it does not allow to add widgets to it like the file opening dialog, for example, which allows to select encoding and revision, how could we manage that?

I could be handled once the file is opened.

Like this:

  1. Open GtkFileChooserNative dialog
  2. Open the selected file(s)
  3. For each file, auto-detect encoding
  4. In each tab, have a contextual menu on the encoding place where you can easily change your encoding by simply selecting another one
