>From a technical point of view, what's happening is that the file picker is
using KIO, as expected, and KIO knows how to access Samba shares. All is well
there.

But when opening a document from Dolphin, Dolphin is executing `<app name> %U`
(e.g. libreoffice-writer smb://path/todocument.odt). Because LO apps don't
either use KIO or have a built-in Samba client, KIO intercepts the call,
downloads the document from smb://path/todocument.odt to
~/.cache/kioexec/krun/<random number>/document.odt, and tells LO to open it
from that path.

All is well so far. But starting in LO 6.1, upon saving the document and
quitting, KIO does not get the signal that the file was saved, and so does not
upload it back to the remote URL. This happens with GIO-using apps (I believe
LO gained support for GIO recently, but correct me if I'm wrong).

We are working on the issue from the KDE side, but it would also work if LO
apps gained native KIO support.
