Description Vladimir Voskresensky 2007-06-09 10:39:40 UTC 
Open Project dialog become less usable,
It doesn't have standard "Home" directory button which is used very often to
start browsing filesystem on *nix platforms.
We have a lot of symlinks from user dir to everything useful in the net.
Please, put "Home" dir button back.
Another (less anoying) problem: where is "List"/"Detailed" buttons?
