Sure, I probably wasn't clear in that I tested it in that regard.
Updated test plan accordingly.
Regardless, here I go.

Test:
* Opening "Other..." dialog shows mirror selection.
* Selecting "Select best server..." Opens a progress window.
* After some churn, a mirror was selected. In my case, it gave
"morrors.ocf.berkeley.edu".
* Clicking on "Ok" changed the mirror to the above selection.
* Upon close, was asked if I wanted to reload the software cache. I clicked
"Reload" and it began an `apt update` in the background with a progress meter.
$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ubuntu.sources
Types: deb
URIs: http://mirrors.ocf.berkeley.edu/ubuntu/
Suites: plucky plucky-updates plucky-backports plucky-proposed

I'd say this was a success.

Title:
[SRU] Dialog not opening after selecting "Other" for Ubuntu Software
source
Status in software-properties package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in software-properties source package in Plucky:
Fix Committed
Status in software-properties source package in Questing:
Fix Released
Bug description:
[Impact]
Users are unable to select alternative mirrors under Software Sources
for Kubuntu, Lubuntu, and Ubuntu Studio which use software-properties-
qt. As it turns out, this is because DialogMirror.py was never ported
to Qt6.
[Test Plan]
Steps to reproduce.
1) Go to "Software Sources"
2) Go to "Ubuntu Software" tab
3) On the "Download from:" field select the option "Other..." in the dropdown.
Expected result: A dialog opens which allows selecting a mirror and mirror is
actually selected and used.
Actual result: "Software Sources" tab freezes for ~1 second and the dialog is
not opened.
[What problems could occur]
There may be more issues that could occur, such as other fields being
incomplete, but this has been well-tested.
