Many of us - the new open dialog caused me to start using Windows Exploder
again when I want to open files in GIMP, since it's just faster (and I know
of ^L dialog).
Really under Windows, GTK ought to be using the win32 file selector
instead of it's own one. That's what users expect.
I'm not so sure about this. I can understand people wanting to have the
*option* of overriding the Gtk2 File Open dialog with a native windows
one, but I personally prefer the Gtk2 dialog - apart from it currently
now knowing about special locations such as 'My Documents', etc.
Admittedly, I don't insist on using the keyboard, so I can't comment on
how keyboard-friendly it is.
Having the Gtk2 dialog available on all platforms makes writing
cross-platform apps a lot easier. It just means I don't have to be as
paranoid about testing everything on every platform.
