That is very strange indeed. What reasons were used to create such
an terrible, useless nonsens etc thing. Once upon a time there was 
Intuition library with its simple, robust, *intuitive* asl file 
requester. But it was in the good ald computing days, where people were 
think (IMHO) in more stright forward way. what happens now (gnome, gtk 
fopen dialog for example) is beyond my understanding. That is not the 
way I like that the computers are going.

Where are those minds who created MUI, asl, reqtools and so on? Yes 
these thing are from Amiga world.

Just my 2 cents.
