Description Jason Siefken 2011-10-22 01:43:15 UTC 
When pressing ctrl+l GtkFileChooser should set focus to an entry where one can type in a file path even when browsing "Recent Documents".  The current behavior is to only bring up this entry when browsing a files in a particular directory.

There might be a possible question as to what should be the default path, but I think the users home directory would be reasonable.

I might also add that pressing "/" once does activate the path entry, however it "eats" the "/" character (this doesn't happen outside of the Recent items view). Essentially, one has to type "/" twice to get the same behavior as in normal filechooser folder views.
