Agreed but I'd vote for dropping the branding ("with Brasero"). If we

Sure but keep the file browser pane hidden by default (unless the user
enabled it earlier). I can imagine most of the users want to drag the
files they just downloaded from the desktop.

Same comment about "with Brasero" applies.
