As unfortunate as it is, this is not a sole Win32 problem. The file chooser has started to host numerous issues and regressions some time ago. All Gtk platforms would benefit from improvements. That said, I personally hate seeing any non-Gtk file chooser on my linux machines, be it tk, qt, wine or even peculiar Gtk applications. And I know mac users who feel accordingly regarding gtk apps on their mac. Based on that assumption, I would think native file choosers on foreign systems would be very attractive.
