Abiword exits whenever one needs to use a file chooser to open or save
files to be used or saved by AbiWord.

# Steps to reproduce

1. Run AbiWord (with no other instances open, just to make sure).

2. Go to: File → Open
  * Or to: File → Save as
  * Or to: File → Export

# Notes

I have attached the strace from the start of `strace abiword` until the
File → Open action is done.

# Workaround

At least for openning files: Run AbiWord with the existing file as argument.


Respectfully, Adonay.
