I don't think anything bad happens if you use a file name instead of a directory name. It is not "quite right", but it is ok. It would be a pain in the neck for the `directory' widget to reject directory file names. It would be a nice little touch for the `directory' widget to convert directory file names automatically into directory names. But let's not change that now.
