---------------------+------------------------------
 I got the issue that whenever I saved a file from the TOR browser, my gtk-
 setting to sort folders before files got changed by the file-chooser
 dialog. This globally affects apps like nautilus as well.

 Actually, the file-chooser seems to ignore the current settings in
 "org/gtk/settings/file-chooser/sort-directories-first" and uses some
 defaults. However, the settings are written-back to the global config,
 thus probably causing the issue.

 Would be good to load settings in the file-chooser dialog in advance or
 discard writing later.
