Did you verify that these attributes don't produce any problems on
older versions of Windows?

I don't see how can we remove this flag unconditionally, since we do
use a hook function, and for a good reason, AFAIR.  Won't removing the
flag break the functionality for which we use the callback function
there?  Did you try selecting "Directories" in the file chooser?
