Notes on choosing a backup directory
Discord discussion summary:
Focus will be on local connection for now since remote is relatively an edge case. Yang Yang is working on a new binary launcher that will give xud-explorer read and write access to the remote filesystem. In this milestone, we can focus on getting the local backup file setup right and remote backup tab can be disabled for now.
Update discord discussion:

Launcher has full file system access and can verify the typed path
