Your new patch looks really got, however this problem still persists.
If I find the time I am going to debug this this evening, in any case I
hope to do it this weekend.

Maybe it would be better to use a text input field instead of a label (?).
First you can then type in the path directly instead of going through the
dialog. But more important, using a label is not a good idea when the
path is really long because then the dialog will be really wide. Using
a text input field you can limit its width and still be able to type in and
see the whole path.
