In my opinion `save file chooser' is an entry plus a button
to browse the filesystem if one wishes to.  Anything
requiring me to click on some button which launches yet
another dialog just to enter a file name is Evil.

Another possibility (depending on space and other design
constraints) is to embed complete GtkFileChooser, its save
mode is quite small in the collapsed state.
