Thanks for the speedy reply and referral to the uncompleted bug report. I forgot about xenial-proposed (which I tend not to enable on LTS). After downloading http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/x/xdg- desktop-portal/xdg-desktop-portal_0.11-1_amd64.deb and manually editing dependencies to include xenial's dbus-x11 (default-dbus-session-bus | dbus-session-bus | dbus-x11) I succesfully installed xdg-desktop-portal- gtk.
