Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

On a fresh ML4W install, thunderbird was not able to open a file chooser when I clicked on "add attachments".
I researched the problem, and it was related to a xdg-desktop-portal configuration.
I added this file:

# ~/.config/xdg-desktop-portal/portals.conf
[preferred]
default=hyprland
org.freedesktop.impl.portal.FileChooser=gtk

And now thunderbird can open a file chooser.

I have heard that "xdg" instead of "hyprland" could work, but I did not test it.
