How should the ideal file-selection box look like? There are some attempts to make something better on the net, but I don't know how much of a difference they make. I've seen some discussion about it on the gtk+ list, but no plans were made to improve the current file selection box. What should be on the wish-list? gtk+ style/windows style or maybe NeXTstep style box (I personnaly like the last one ;-)? The create directory button is handy, so are home/desktop/back/forward keys. File completion is a very nice feature and should be preserved IMHO.

Ideas?
