Change default in File Open from OK to Navigate

Please change the default for directories in the File Open dialog from OK to Navigate. Currently, it is totally obnoxious. Further, OK should be very rare for directories.

  • In your home directory mkdir the directory aaaaa.
  • Open ParaView.
  • File/ Open. Change directory to /.
  • Now, highlight Home (or User), Enter. Type in your name. Enter Now, the top folder (aaaaa) should be highlighted, but isn't in the File Name input box. Just hit Enter. We try to open this directory as a datset. It should default to Navigate. Note, if you click on Navigate, it does what you expect. Further, the Open dialog then closes! We get a useless message that File ' "" ' cannot be read.

This is obnoxious enough that I have marked it important.
