There is a "Folder" entry box that lets you enter a subfolder of the
storage disk.  You're asking for a button that lets you fill that out
via a file dialog?

Title:
  No "Choose Folder..." button when selecting a storage disk

Status in “deja-dup” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When configuring deja-dup through the "Backup" dialog in the settings
  you can select a disk in the "Storage" section. When doing so you only
  get an empty "Folder" input field. This happens for local as well as
  external disks. Not often do you want the backup to be placed directly
  in the root of the disk though.

  It would be more efficient to provide a "Choose Folder..." button,
  just like when selecting the "Local folder" option from the "Backup
  location" dropdown. Only in this case it would use the selected disk
  as a base. This would allow you to quickly choose a subfolder and/or
  create one.
