Expected Behavior

Invoke dialog.ShowOpenDialog(); the dialog has a "Open files read-only" checkbox in the lower left.

Actual Behavior

No such checkbox, or at least, a way to suppress it since this isn't a useful option in our scenario (and doesn't seem to be any way to tell if the user checked it even if it was).

Presumably related to the fix for #32857.
