nossal: my hypothesis is that SQLite in trackerd is attempting to lock a file in NFS which fails and causes it to hang. However, it's clear from Ville's report and yours that perhaps other things may be at fault.
Can you re-install the tracker packages, relogin (to restart all trackerd in a clean set up) and then run: $ lsof -p $(pidof trackerd) > /tmp/trackerd.lsof $ strace -tt -T -o /tmp/trackerd.trace -p $(pidof trackerd) in one window while reproducing the problem with the python filechooser command? Then control-C the trackerd strace and attach /tmp/trackerd.lsof and /tmp/trackerd.trace to the bug report? Ville Koskinen: Can you check to see if the updated packages in bug 214041 solve your problem? (They may already be released.)
