Hi all!

I ran into the same issue as described with bug 3050386.
The attached patch fixes that issue on my system.
It simly removes the check for a writable directory - that's all.
With that I can open images via Gimp or any other external editor without any issue.

I hope you can merge this patch into the sources...

Regards

Mathias
