Title:
  The "open file" dialog doesn't treat saved searches as folders

Status in GTK+ GUI Toolkit:
  Expired
Status in One Hundred Papercuts:
  Invalid
Status in gtk+2.0 package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  When talking about saved searches, the gnome Desktop User Guide
  states: "Saved searches behave exactly like regular folders, for
  example you can open, move or delete files from within a saved
  search".

  That's true in nautilus. But if, using any application's "open file"
  dialog, and try to open a file located inside a saved search "folder",
  you can't. In this case the saved search is seen as a regular file,
  not a folder.

  Steps to reproduce.

  1.-Inside my home directory I've created a saved search that holds all
  the pdf files located in any of my folders.

  2.- I open evince, and select File>Open to open a pdf file from the
  previously created saved search "folder".

  3.-The "open file" dialog apears.

  What I expected to happen:
      I can navigate inside the saved search, as it is like any regular folder, and I open the file.

  What happened instead
      I can't navigate inside the saved search

  
  Bug seen in ubuntu 9.04
