I guess this is a question of taste. Actually, I like the present 
GtkFileSelector quite much since it has convenient keyboard support and 
tab expansion. So, IMO, it is quite user friendly and definetely 
productive.

The only problem I experienced so far was a tendence to "loose" the 
filename when using the file selector for saving but I do not have any 
"user friendly" ideas.
