This is another artefact of that quick newsgroup setup we mentioned. I
refer you again to the proposal to change the names. In the new news
hierarchy, there will be developers groups and users groups.

Because, as someone else explained, the API for a file dialog is "Get me a
filename, please". That for a tree control is somewhat more complex, and
we wanted a superset of the functionality on all platforms, not a subset
(like AWT.)
