Ah, thanks for the clarification. I actually went to the #Ubuntu IRC chat and asked - if called by an app, is the panel still nautilus, and I was told "yes", hence I filed the bug report against it. Never knew that this "GTK filechooser" is a different animal.
Anything else I need to do/provide to this ticket? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to gtk+3.0 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1803176 Title: Search in Nautilus does not work correctly when called from other apps Status in gtk+3.0 package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When Nautilus is called from another app, e.g., Thunderbird > Attach File to email (or Gedit > Save file) the search (via the magnifying glass icon in the top right) only allows for 1 character to be entered, and then jumps to the bottom right and subsequent characters appear there. This behavior, of course, messes up the expected search results as the search is split into two fields/areas of the panel. In contrast, when opening up a Nautilus browser panel directly, any search query entered from the magnifying glass icon stays in the text entry area as expected, and the search results work well. The expectation is that when another app calls Nautilus, the search function works as if it does when working directly out of Nautilus.
