--- Comment #6 from Luke Kendall <[email protected]> ---
You're right: I uninstalled libreoffice-gtk3 and restarted LO, and turned OFF
the "Use Libreoffice dialogs" in Tools/options/general, and the bad File Open
dialogue was gone, and it worked how it iused to.  In fact the whole LO
document UI looked better (back to what it wsa), instead of being
white-on-black and occupying about 10% more screen real estate.

So as an added bonus of following Adolfo's tip, I now have more space available
for the actual text of the document, and a much more pleasant-looking UI. 
Thank you!

I've noticed, over the decades, that retrograde design choices seem to be
especially common amongst UI designers, for some reason, and more so for open
source projects than others.  In my experience, it happens when the people
involved "realise" they are so expert that they no longer need to do user
trials.

The Microsoft Ribbon springs to mind, too.
