This field originates from the time when OpenOffice.org was a browser ... There's in fact no real use for this control in database documents, as it is not data-aware. Of course you could add some macro magic to it, which evaluates the user-entered path and does <whatever> with it. Even then, however, the control lacks desirable features such as specifying the list of extensions which it should browse for, auto-completion, and the like.
