Can't create new folder on the dialog when vscode.window.showOpenDialog is called on WSL environment.

Hi,

vscode.window.showOpenDialog method requests to open a file exproler dialog on the host system.
On the WSL environment, dialog is not opened and use command palet area to select a folder because of no system dialog on it.
In some cases, users want to create a new folder when they want to select a folder.
The system file exproler dialog can do it, but it can't in WSL.
Do you have any solution for it, or do you have a plan to support it on VSCode?
