Public bug reported:

Whenever an open-file dialog appears, it presents all files, including
hidden. The setting Show hidden files in the preferences of Nautilus is
OFF. Of course I can always click Ctrl+H or right-click and disable
showing hidden files. But it's annoying!

The general setting should apply to all dialogs: if its OFF then all
dialogs should hide hidden files.

The problem was discussed:

and

The Ctrl+H solution is not a solution, its only a workaround...
