Talking about the 'add files dialog'

Maybe too late for Ver1.1 but surely interesting for 2.0: The
likelyhood the user stays in a certain directory at a certain function
is much higher than the user will change completely path and thus
apreciate to be thrown back to the HOME directory. 
My suggestion: Each file dialog remembers it's last position. A great
help would be to take the project default path, for now.

How about allowing but asking what to do for each file as the 'add
files dialog' does?
