I think the default view is icon for all directories but it remembers
which folders specifically you went into if you changed views.  Ctrl-1
chooses icon view and ctrl-2 chooses the vertical list view.  I don't
think these changes affect open and save dialogs.  I haven't generally
run into a lot of latency with open and save dialogs but I hadn't
really paid a lot of attention to that situation either.

I still wonder if Orca has anything to these major performance hits or
if it is Nautilus whether Orca is running or not.
