This is still a problem in OOO310m19 (Build:9420.
This issue is clear and well written. Please do fix it, as this creates a very
bad first (or nearly first) impression upon the users of Impress.

Just as the writer of this issue said I found it very unusual that the button
currently labelled "Open" actually did not directly open the selected
presentation. Instead it opened a browse dialog. This could be greatly improved
simply by changing the text on that button to "Browse" rather than "Open".
In its defence, it does have a folder icon, which might give a clue, but that
really is also non-standard, and I would suggest that the icon is removed. Non
of the other buttons on that page have icons, so removing it would be an
increase in standarization.

I would also suggest that the "Browse" button is moved on the dialog to the
right of the option "Open Existing Presentation". This would then show a little
more clearly that the user has either the option of browsing for a presentation,
or choosing one directly from the list. Both of these options would be as close
to the option "Open Existing Presentation". At present it seems that I have to
bypass the button, making it less obvious that the button is only required in
the case where the presentation isn't already in the list.

I hope that these suggestions provide a concrete way of solving the issue
mentioned here.
