But i think providing a similar interface doesn't mean that file dialogs
have to be written in the same toolkit. I have heard there are plans to
have a Button-Order flag through XSETTINGS and probably there could also
be a File-Dialog-Style "hint". There is no need for absolute
perfectionism and no need to rush either - the data-model should be
fixed first...
