[Usability] File Dialog Add/Remove Places Mockup



Hi!

The 'Three dialog problems' thread got my thinking on the 
placement of the Add/Remove buttons.

The Add button's association with the Places list is clear, 
but it's far away from the file/folder list.

I've seen GUIs for comparable things with left and right 
pointing arrow buttons between them. GIMPs Additional 
Input Controlers (Preferences) is one example, allthough 
I wonder if it is really appropiate there.

Anyway:

The resize handle doesn't exactly look elegant this way, 
but I didn't want to use more width. Also makes for an 
easy to hit target area.
