FileChooser in 1.7.1

[Peter Hardman <peter somborneshetlands co uk>]

I run Arch Linux x86_64
Just updated to 1.7.1 and I see that GTK's filechooser now opens in the 
(to me) wholly useless and annoying 'Recently Used' pseudo folder rather 
than the previous behaviour of opening in $HOME or the last directory I 
opened a file in.

Is this a side-effect of having the MRU in the File menu? I can't 
believe it's deliberate as with the new MRU it's completely pointless 
having filechooser open in 'Recently Used'.
