Hi,

we talked about a few changes, but I forgot to add them to the
tracker. Here is the first:

I think this is what we should do. We basically talk about a single
dialog, modified for different cases. We could even drop one mode of
operation completely.

So I propose this new function:
    filename_dialog(title, mode, default_path, filter, default_filename)
    filename_dialog(options)

The first call would have individual options, the second call would
put all options in an array. The array could make this easier, but I
would still mark this as experimental.

All options would be optional (doh), with the following new defaults:
title - "Choose file" or somesuch
mode - "exist"


I think the macro call should be as easy as possible, while not
preventing more powerful use.
