Re: file-sel API issues

Hye

I found your component very cool (and I don't agree with the 
de-componentization, bur never mind) and I decided to give it a try. I 
found galeon a good candidate for that, and I go to work.
The result  is really fine and I come to you with some issues.
In your doc you let hears that the component will deal with the fullpath 
but when using it for saving a file, I only get back a local file 
(without the directory) even if I changed it.

ex.
SaveAs with default dir /home/rcoscali. I enter portal.html in the name 
entry. The string I get (after <ok>) is 'portal.html' (and as galeon was 
launched from /u4/galeon/.... the file is saved as 
/u4/galeon/.../portal.html.
The same occurs if I change directory with the filesel component (in 
/tmp for example).

Is it a candidate for a bug ... or have I to get a property (and then 
there is something I missed) ?
Note that for reading, the behaviour is as expected.

Thanks
