Description bugs 2012-04-24 20:46:46 UTC 
Sometimes when I open the file chooser I see hidden files even when "show hidden files" checkbox is off. This just happened now when I reinstalled gtk 2.24.5. Generally when it does happen it seems to happen after I use the checkbox, but it's a rather infrequent occurrence and I haven't been noticed a consistent pattern to it.

Normally I have the checkbox off.

Currently reproduced on 2.24.5.

Is it possible this is related to bug #596234? 

Or is it all hidden files you are seeing?
