Sorry, this is not possible with the standard widget.

This is a long standing gtk problem, and there are lots of add-on
widgets which people have done to try to fix it. I know of:

        http://gtkfilesel.sourceforge.net
        http://incandescent.mp3revolution.net/gtk
        http://cima.ng-london.org.uk/~john/giorgio/gtkfilesel2
        http://students.cs.byu.edu/~torriem/gtk/
        http://www.acm.uiuc.edu/sigunix/projects/bugfixes/

... and I'm sure there are others.

I'd obviously recommend my hack :-) (the middle one above)

John
