Here is my reply on freedesktop.org (next time I'll reply here first as
I see it will then send the comment over there):

Regarding using the native LO Dialogs, they do not provide "sidebar
access" to pinned (or "mounted") Samba shares, so the user can only find
these shares by manually navigating to the ".gvfs" folder and then to
the share.  Note that as far as I can tell there is not the option with
these LO Dialogs to "show hidden directories" so the only way to even
see the .gvfs folder is to manually type it in the location bar.

In summary, since "mounted devices" aren't shown in the LO Dialogs there
doesn't seem to be an easy way to test these dialogs for the same
situation.  As noted earlier, in the standard dialogs it is possible to
save correctly by manually navigating to the .gvfs folder.
