Description russianneuromancer 2010-09-25 07:35:40 UTC 
Many peoples use browser for uploading images (in most cases - photos) to image-hosting. Current version of file-open dialog display preview only for image, selected in dialog at this moment. For select image user must click on each image in the folder to select the one that he needs, or use file-browser for find right image filename. It's very inconvenient.

I propose discuss ways to fix this problem.

In bug #141154 we are in the process of adding a mode to the file chooser so you can use an icon view (like Nautilus) instead of a list view.  Would this solve your problem?
