[PATCH] default VPN import/export path to home directory

[Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre <mathieu-tl ubuntu com>]

Hi,

In previous versions of nm-applet on Ubuntu we could notice the
default path for import and export of VPN configs being the user's
home directory.

Looking again, this doesn't appear to be the case in Oneiric, possibly
because of changes in GTK. The attached patch defines the current
directory as the user's home when
the file chooser is being created for import and export.

It makes it one fewer click for most use cases when trying to import or export
a connection; since the home directory is the most likely place to find a
connection to import, or where to drop the file.
