bug in gtk-fileselect

["Dipl.-Ing. Uwe Koloska" <koloska Rcs1 urz tu-dresden de>]

Hello,

I think I have found some bug in gtk-fileselect.

If the fileselectbox is pressed to only select directories, the tab-expansion
will select files.  If there is a directory with only one file, then this file
is selected by pressing tab.  And if a directory has only files beginning with
the same characters, these characters will be part of the selection if you
choose the directory by tab-expansion.

Example

  dir1/
	only-one
  other-dir/
	no-dir
	numero

by pressing <d> <tab> the selection will be "dir1/only-one" and by pressing <o>
<tab> the selection will be "other-dir/n".  Both are not right when only
directories should be chosen.

And the second one is also (most time) a fault, when selection of files is
enabled, but I think this has to be handled by the application to preserve
flexibility.

Yours
  Uwe
