insert image fails from "recently used" file list

[kurty]

Method:
-Open insert image dialogue.
-Choose "recently used" places on left sidebar in dialogue.
-Choose file.
-Click "Open" button in lower right corner of dialogue.
-Dialogue exits but not link or text of any kind is inserted.

-Following same procedure but going directly to file (eg ~/Pictures/picture.png) produces proper result.

This is also the case for the insert file dialogue.

Linux Mint 15 Cinnamon.
Rednotebook 1.7.1

The fix (commit 1298) breaks the use of opening the file chooser in the last used directory for inserting an image.

For the image file chooser, dirs.last_pic_dir is used for set_current_folder (insert_menu.py line 171). However this variable is not set anymore after commit 1298 (now dirs.last_file_dir is used, probably as it was copied from the on_insert_file function?).
