Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/netblue30/firejail/issues/5303

I am starting firejail --private chromium and then go to chrome://settings/downloads and click on the Change button to change the location. A folder-selector dialog pops up, where I can see my real home directory and not the private one.
I would expect that the home directory is the temporary private one, and not the original host home directory.
