FileChooser: Change current path/file listing to directory typed into Location:



Maybe a stupid question, but:

A few Gtk revisions ago, I was pleased to find that the FileChooser was updated so that it would allow me to type in filenames by hand with auto-completion and all, into a "Location:" entry in the actual selection window (once it's enabled.) Like I said, rather nice in some cases, but what if you want to type in just a part of the path and go from there using point + click? I mean, is there a way to get the path (as displayed in the button row on the top) for the selectable files? I can't just type, then press Enter, since that will actually trigger the Open action, which is not what I want. Or actually, I may change this behaviour in my own program, but is there some sort of built-in behaviour I can use instead?
