I looked at the pygtk reference docs and found that you can change those
bindings in your .gtkrc-2.0:

binding "my-own-gtkfilechooser-bindings" {
   bind "<Alt><Shift>l" {
      "location-popup" ()
   }
   bind "<Alt><Shift>Up" {
      "up-folder" ()
   }
   bind "<Alt><Shift>Down" {
      "down-folder" ()
   }
   bind "<Alt><Shift>Home" {
      "home-folder-folder" ()
   }
}
class "GtkFileChooserDefault" binding "my-own-gtkfilechooser-bindings"

Yes crtl-h would be nice, almost discoverable even. :-)

Thanks for your input.
