Why not export the ALLEGRO_NATIVE_FILE_CHOOSER type that already

I'm slightly leaning towards that option too at the moment.
I think it would also be neat to use the FS_HOOK interface for this
(it's there to be used, right?), in which case I would essentially
copy the system vtable and override the relevant methods (the file
picker would essentially replace al_opendir()).
Btw, I prefer "picker". After all, you can pick your nose but you
can't
choose your nose. Except in Hollywood.
I prefer "picker" to "chooser" too; I've never heard or seen the word
"chooser" used anywhere.
