Description Philip Withnall 2007-05-06 20:04:57 UTC 
Running the test program attached shows that gtk_file_chooser_set_current_folder_uri returns TRUE, even if the folder cannot be changed (in this case) to an inaccessible URL (http://www.gearwire.com/media), despite the fact that an error dialog pops up about the location's inaccessibility.

See bug 432904 for details on how to reproduce.

In gtkfilechooserdefault.c, we should switch to a local, known-working source in update_current_folder_get_info_cb() if we can't switch to the parent either.
