Accessing `/tmp` in file picker freezes the UI #483

I am having trouble accessing the /tmp folder using the xdg-desktop-portal-gtk file picker. The UI window freezes and becomes unresponsive as soon as I attempt to access /tmp. This issue affects applications such as Thunderbird, Firefox, and Chromium.

Is this expected behavior for /tmp?

xdg-desktop-portal-gtk Version: 1.14.1-1 (Debian 12)

Update: The issue affects only file uploads (choosing the file), but not downloads (choosing where to store).
