The documentation for hildon_file_chooser_dialog_set_safe_folder():
http://www.maemo.org/platform/docs/api/hildon-docs/fm-html/hildon-fm-HildonFileChooserDialog.html#hildon-file-chooser-dialog-set-safe-folder
says
"Sets a safe folder that is used as a fallback in a case that automatic
location change fails."
What is "automatic location change" and when might it fail?
"automatic location change" takes place when (if) file selector detects
that the currently selected location is not usable anymore. This can be
because of:
* Currently selected location was on mmc and mmc was removed.
* Currently selected location was on gateway device and connection
failed.
* Somebody removed the currently selected folder
* ... some other reason ...
In these cases file selector tries to move selection into some other
location (usually parent folder). However, if this fails as well, safe
folder provides a fallback location. By default, the root folder is used
as a safe folder, but applications can provide a better fallback
location if needed.
