Comment (by Librenox):

 Polite reminder (and +1) that OP was about TBB *ignoring* gtk settings,
 not about the clobbering issue. I came here because TBB's uses the gtk
 default "Sort Folders Before Files=False" and I also find that
 sufficiently irritating to request a fix.

 This wouldn't require sharing the user's dconf database, it would be fine
 if TBB had its own
 (settable via DCONF_PROFILE according to
 https://developer.gnome.org/dconf/unstable/dconf-overview.html#Profiles),
 and the user had to change the settings separately there. But
 right now I think those settings are simply not loaded.
