Paul, anything you would like to share?  :)

I thought that component was pretty handy, considering that not all 
platforms have a native "Select Directory" dialog.

I remember in GTK1 the "File Open" dialog was used to select Directories 
- what a nightmare that was. Plus confusing as hell to the users.
