I do something like this as I build the file chooser:

  char *cwd;

  cwd = g_get_current_dir();
  gtk_file_chooser_add_shortcut_folder( GTK_FILE_CHOOSER(
filesel->chooser ), cwd, NULL );
  g_free( cwd );

Then the cwd appears somewhere around the middle of the 'places' list
on the left.

It would be ncie to be able to give a symbolic name for the shortcut
(eg. "Current directory") since the actual dirname is often not very
useful (for me, for example, it often simply comes up as "data",
rather unclear).
