You have been subscribed to a public bug:
Open a random file save form (gedit, LibreOffice doesn't matter).
Sometimes the first entry in the file list gets highlighted
automatically which may be a folder (especially when it is not the first
time you save a file). So the user may click on another entry to change
the selection, but clicking on the background *does not cause* a
deselection to take place. In my opinion that would be an expected usage
pattern as it is the case on common other platforms.
Why is that important? Sometimes the user just needs to choose the
current working directory and not a particular folder/file (he doesn't
want to have the file stored in a subfolder). The only valid (and nasty)
workaround is to go one hierarchy upwards and then double-click the
directory folder. The folder gets opened and the user finally finds him
/her-self with no entry highlighted.
