Yesterday i was working a bit with MS windows and the file chooser of
Excel... I was browsing to a folder with following subdirectories :
sim1, sim2, ... sim10, sim11, sim12,....

in Windows explorer and the file choser this becomes :
folder
|-sim1
|-sim2
|-sim3
|-sim4
|-sim5
|-sim6
|-sim7
|-sim8
|-sim9
|-sim10
|-sim11
|-sim12

in Thunar this would become :
|-sim1
|-sim10
|-sim11
|-sim12
|-sim2
|-sim3
|-sim4
|-sim5
|-sim6
|-sim7
|-sim8
|-sim9

which is of course correct but still counter intuitive...
while messing around with that it seemed that gtkfilechooser is also
sorting these folders like windows explorer... so incorrect but
completely intuitive...
