In Linux there are directories and files which are typically hidden that 
start with a .  like .bash_profile or .xmms or .mozilla.  These are all 
settings files and directories and they show up in the file chooser 
lists and it's really annoying because anyone using linux a lot, has a 
lot of those files and they always appear first in the list, and you 
sometimes have to scroll down quite a bit to get to the directory you're 
looking for.

I had suggested filtering them out or changing the sort so that they 
show up at the end, but I think the second one is harder and probably a 
waste of time since I don't see how anyone would need to set anything in 
those directories.

Thanks
