Title:
  can't join a hidden file to a thunderbird mail

Status in The Linux Mint Distribution:
  New
Status in thunderbird package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I'm using Linux MINT + MATE + Mozilla Thunderbird.
  In a normal configuration, it's impossible to add a hidden file (beginning with .) to a mail with Mozilla Thunderbird.
  Mozilla Thunderbird open a GTK window to choose which file we want to join to a new mail and in this windows, hidden files don't appear, it's impossible to select one.
