Title:
  GTK File chooser search doesn't find files with a dot

Status in gtk+3.0 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  (I'm not sure this is the correct package to file the bug against)

  The (I assume) GTK 3.0 File chooser dialog doesn't allow searching
  files with a dot.

  In the previous, but working, File chooser, in order to search files,
  the typeahead would be used. In order to search dotfiles (files
  starting with dot), one would enable display of hidden files if
  required, then just type the filename (starting with the dot
  character).

  With the new search functionality, the dot character is not searched
  (or not considered valid, it's not clear), so one can't search
  dotfiles, and they need to manually go through the files in order to
  find the intended one(s).

  In order to reproduce, for example:

  - Open a webpage in Firefox
  - Click "Save As..." on an image
  - Tap Ctrl+H, if the hidden files are not displayed
  - Tap Ctrl+F, in order to search
  - Tap dot (`.`)

  no files show.

  I hope this is not another case of the (in)famous group of devs who's
  trying to reduce the whole desktop experience to a single blinking
  dot.
