Description Calum Benson 2004-03-01 13:00:03 UTC 
I notice the new file chooser doesn't seem to respect .hidden files, which
can lead to a bit of an inconsistent (and dangerous?) user experience if a
sysadmin has set things up to hide folders that the user shouldn't be
touching.  Could/should an app's file chooser be able to hide files in the
same way Nautilus does?  (If so, I guess it might have to work for GNOME
apps only, not necessarily for all gtk+ apps.)

Damn, and I even searched first to make sure it wasn't a dup :)
