Hi Sebastien,

yeah, exactly that was the functionality I looked for - the <ctrl>+click
hotkey. Unfortunately it is not very intuitive if you don't know about
it. So I guess that I am not the only user which would be more familiar
with the click outside...

Similar thing about the path editing feature: you may not just click on
the breadcrumbs in the top to get the path field as it is the case on
other OS as Windows. No, you need to know about the <crtl>+L shortcut to
open it.

So put together those are not bugs, but rather usability issues...

Title:
  GTKFileChooser: deselect highlighted directory

Status in GTK+:
  Unknown
Status in gtk+3.0 package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Open a random file save form (gedit, LibreOffice doesn't matter).

  Sometimes the first entry in the file list gets highlighted
  automatically which may be a folder (especially when it is not the
  first time you save a file). So the user may click on another entry to
  change the selection, but clicking on the background *does not cause*
  a deselection to take place. In my opinion that would be an expected
  usage pattern as it is the case on common other platforms.

  Why is that important? Sometimes the user just needs to choose the
  current working directory and not a particular folder/file (he doesn't
  want to have the file stored in a subfolder). The only valid (and
  nasty) workaround is to go one hierarchy upwards and then double-click
  the directory folder. The folder gets opened and the user finally
  finds him/her-self with no entry highlighted.
