Re: arch filter button

["Stephen Kennedy" <stevek gnome org>]

Hi Chris, thanks for the patch. You're right the list is getting too
long so I've simply combined all the VC filters into one. While I'm at
it, it also sucks that the tooltips are broken on filename filters. I
think it broke when the not-quite binary compatible gtktoolbar api
changed.
