I am new to Julia and wanted to try it out together with Juno IDE for my small experiments.  
The Atom UI looks very different from what one would used to have for a standalone app GUI.

What struck me for example is the lack of conventional file open dialog in the settings for Julia Path.  
So I wonder, is it something difficult to implement within Atom/Electron or the community just does not have this as high prio?

Not difficult to implement, no (e.g. File \> Open File has that dialogue), but probably very low priority.

And you’re right, Juno (and Atom) _are_ different to some other desktop apps, but it’s just something you’ll need to get used to.
