Description Kevin Haaland CLA 2001-10-10 22:28:42 EDT 
In Unix all HD are mounted as a directory under "/".
	In Window you have c: , d: etc which makes it impossible to 
	import files from c: and d: at the same time.

	When the user click "Browse" to select a directory it open a dialog 
	with all roots c: d: etc. We shoud let the user select "desktop" for example
	and show the roots in the import dialog.

Should also look at supporting ~ on Linux
Comment 4 Tod Creasey CLA 2002-08-26 10:58:20 EDT 
My Computer is not a valid return value from the Windows file dialog - Windows 
does not differentiate between cancel and My Computer.
