I LOVE the open dialog.  Its come a long way since Gnome1.4.  I have 
some questions on it though.  If you create a bookmark, how do I get 
access to that bookmark next time?  Do we need a bookmark dropdown box ? 
Also, can I change to where "documents" or "downloads" button point to? 
For example if I click on the "documents" icon it brings me to (say) 
/home/damien/Documents/, but if I want it to bring me to (say) 
/home/damien/NewDocuments/ from now on, is there a way that I can do that ?

However I have some comments on the save dialog.  How do I get easy 
access to various folders.  What if I want to save to my floppy, or to 
an external USB drive of just some other folder other than the current 
one I'm in.  Souldn't we have the toolbar with "home" "desktop" 
"docuement" "back" "up" etc also in the save dialog?
