traversing folders via an "Open file dialog" would look and feel
different than transversing folders on the desktop, altho they are in
effect the same.  personally, i'd also like to see the finder use an
"open file dialog" when "Open" is used and no file is currently
selected. in addition, i'd like that "open file dialog" to have two
windows, one containing only folders and the other containing only
non-folder type files within the currently selected folder. thus the
first window is used for movement and the second window for selection.
The ability to create folders on the run within this dialog would also
be nice!
