Its possible that a small API enhancement would open up the TerraFileBrowserSheetSkin. By being allowed to set the BXML file that is loaded, you could subclass the skin and install your own, leveraging the existing BXML, to add to the BXML the extra breadcrumbs.
Or you could just ask for the skin to include a non-visible box that you could make visible above and below the main file browser area and use that for "client content". You'll still need to subclass the skin but at least its programmed in nicely. The rest of the API is there to let you hook in the breadcrumbs. I know I would love a "favorites" location when using the filebrowser so I can jump right to the navigation point that I want each time. Its a bit poorly implemented in windows vista, but it saves me alot of time.

Though in future versions of Pivot you maybe will think about a breadcrumb navigator again, and when such a component is present, then there could be an alternative FileBrowser, or the current one could become more configurable. > Breadcrumb navigation for FileBrowsers > -------------------------------------- > > Key: PIVOT-567 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIVOT-567 > Project: Pivot > Issue Type: Improvement > Components: wtk > Reporter: André Thieme > > Instead of (or additionally to) the "Go up a folder" button in the > FileBrowser there could be > a breadcrumb navigation bar.
