either do with Nautilus or Gnome

Title:
   For applications using simplified save dialogues, selecting a
  destionation through "Other..." saves to /HOME directory

Status in “gtk+3.0” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Certain applications, like DeVeDe or Openshot, use a simplified save
  dialogue box. From these simplified lists, the user is presented with
  some default directories to save in (Video, Desktop, Home, etc).
  Selecting any of these destinations from this menu works as expected.
  However, if the user wishes to save to some other location besides the
  ones suggested, they must click on "Other..." which displays the full,
  normal save dialogue. When this is used, it does not matter which
  directory the user chooses - the application will save to the /HOME
  directory.

  I have tested this using DeVeDe on Ubuntu 12.10 64-bit (fresh install)
  and 12.10 32-bit (upgrade install). This *is not* a bug with DeVeDe,
  but it was the first application I found that was using the simplified
  save dialogue (and I also was able to reproduce this using Openshot,
  which does the same thing). If the application uses the normal save
  dialogue box, everything works as expected.

  Please help me provide the information needed for this bug report. I
  do not know what package to file this against, or what other
  information that needs to be attached. It would also be helpful if
  someone can reproduce this. I have not filed a bug report because I
  did not know what to attach or what package to file against. Any help
  would be greatly appreciated.

  Here is a video demonstrating the problem using DeVeDe. I tell DeVeDe
  to export a video to my Desktop from the defaults menu, which works as
  expected. I then tell it to save it to my Desktop, but using the
  "Other..." menu. I would expect it to say that there's a file already
  there with the same name, and offer to overwrite it. Instead, it saves
  the file to my /Home directory.
