Correct, in this case you need an extra click to activate a file which 
is in the 'right' directory. But once you have some files opened, any 
other within their dirs is opened with four clicks at most.
The intent is exactly to handle 'random-order-multi-directory' cases. A 
downside of 'currently active' directory is that it changes whenever you 
need to open something outside of it.
When I started using Programmer's Notepad, I didn't feel like I have to 
change my habits to accomodate with this feature. Now I feel 
uncomfortable using other editors...
