I don't want it (using GNU/Linux with `use-file-dialog' set to nil),
but such an option has also been requested in the German newsgroup[1]
by several people. IIRC, a similar workaround as your "cheat" was
suggested there. Maybe an additional value `always' could be
introduced for `use-file-dialog'. (After the release.)
Bye, Reiner.
