Details:
The NSOpenPanel (and NSSavePanel) delegate method panel:shouldShowFilename:
is incorrectly called with subpaths as well as the final path. Cocoa doesn't
do this.
For example, if I set the default directory to /path/to/some/folder, it seems
that the delegate method gets called with "/", "/path", "/path/to", and
"/path/to/some" as well as "/path/to/some/folder". I want to restrict use of
the open panel to only allow opening files within that particular folder and
its subfolders, so my implementation of this method (which worked under Cocoa)
rejected paths that didn't begin with /path/to/some/folder. With GNUstep's
behavior, my implementation is called first with "/" and rejects it, so the
user isn't able to select anything.
Note: I had a hard time verifying *exactly* what Cocoa does, but it calls
this method very seldom, and GS calls it a *lot*.
