I would be happy (oh well, I am happy anyway :) if this class could 
somehow store a list of "recent directories" as well. If this list 
is then made available from the fileselector, a lot of nagivation
can be avoided in certain situations. Perhaps the "recent diretory" 
list can be displayeed as a popup menu and be activated 
with CTRL+LMB from the fileselector?
