It turns out that this seems to be actually caused by xapp-gtk3-module being set in the GTK3_MODULES env var.
Once I remove it from there, it works and a "Save as..."-dialogue pops up.
Thanks,
Chris.
Expected behavior
Not freeze, but open the dialogue.
Additional information
There's some slight chance that the xapp module might have been involved in another issue (causing a segfault in libgtk) I've noticed in meld and which is described a https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/meld/-/issues/786 .
However, even with the module present in GTK3_MODULES, I can no longer reproduce this.
Oh and I run under Debian sid, with Cinnamon as DE.
