I'm not sure how possible this is, but for a layperson it would SEEM
likely to be possible -- couldn't the native Qt icon sets for directory
listings/file picker be used rather than text? I think it would make the
GUI look much more like a GUI than the occasional
"text-inside-a-graphics-window" look that it has in some places now.

IANA KDE/Qt programmer though. :)
