Description

It would be useful if desktop client offers option to enable/disable file explorer integration, which is now forced by default (at least on Linux).

Once I install NC Desktop on KDE (didn't test other DEs), it "hijacks" file picker dialog (system-wide) by immediately adding synced folders to it. I realize some users might appreciate this feature, but we really need a way to disable this behavior because not everyone wants it.
