[Version 11.0.0] Infinite loop/proliferation of "Open Files" and "Manage Places" dialogs

==============================================================================


Hello all,

I would like to report an issue regarding the new custom dialog introduced in version 11.0.0.

There seems to be a logic flaw or infinite loop when adding new places. Here are the steps to reproduce the issue:

  1. Open either the new "Open Files" or "Save File As" dialog.
  2. Click the "Manage Places" button in the upper left corner.
  3. Click "Add Place" to register a new location.
  4. Upon completing this, a brand new "Open Files" dialog unexpectedly opens in the foreground.
    Note: Even if you started from "Save File As" in Step 1, it always opens an "Open Files" dialog here.
  5. Within this newly opened dialog, repeat steps 2 to 4.
By repeating this cycle, the "Manage Places" and "Open Files" dialogs will multiply and pile up infinitely in the foreground.
It seems incorrect that a new dialog opens at Step 4.

Hoping that the above information will be of some help to you.
Thank you for your hard work on this great software.

Best regards,
