[Gimp-user] open/save with Windows (native) dialog

[josephbupe <forums gimpusers com>]

Hi,

Seriously, a standard file browser would be better with Gimp. The current
browser is just so cumbersome and archaic, so much that I have to either know
the name of the file or click through the list of all files while keeping an eye
on the thumbnail. The procedure is not ideal for better workflow and therefore,
IMHO It should be updated to allow for multiple thumbnail view within the
directory, like the ms windows standard browser.

Hopefully, developers will take this into consideration.
