Not sure that this is correct as a file dialog isn't a software and is a
feature of the gui toolkit.

As 'Sort Folders before Files' isnt a per-directory-setting, this shouldnt be a
problem. The only thing in question is the 'Show Hidden Files' setting.

Though it may not be, if all xfce apps use it, then it is the default and
unifying the behaviour of the default makes an OS feel complete.
