I am already making a test build with locally with the needed changes
applied; I will attach it to the bug soon.

Regarding the filters, from the documentation (linked in the bug
description) my interpretation is that:

 - MIME-type based filters are supported by the Flatpak portal chooser
   implementation. We are only using this kind of filter in WebKitGTK+
   (good!).

 - No filters at all are supported in the Windows implementation. When
   using filters GtkFileChooserNative automatically falls-back to using
   GtkFileChooserDialog. Not like we care right now, as we are lacking
   in the Windows support department, but if somebody made WebKitGTK+
   work in Windows, it seems reasonable to use GtkFileChooserNative and
   let it trigger the fall-back code path when needed.

TL;DR: We will be fine as we are only using MIME-type based filters.
