#15787: Big problem with "open file" windows (and others)
-------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
Reporter: balaco | Owner: rekkanoryo
Type: defect | Status: new
Milestone: | Component: unclassified
Version: 2.10.7 | Keywords: "open file" dialog file directory
| "exibition icon" icon icons
-------------------------+-------------------------------------------------
The windows currently used by Pidgin to open/chose files doesn´t have some
expected "folders" that users expect to find in such dialogs (examples:
"My images", "My documents" and others).
This makes it VERY HARD for Windows users to find files to send in
conversations, or to find files to use as exibition icon.
Even though it is possible for the users to add these folders to the
dialog, instructions for doing so may involve very "strange" steps for
layman users. It may need checking the registry, checking power-user
configurations, and many more; it varies on each Windows versions. So the
user will hardly do this addition.
