Bug Description
since last update (maybe a week? two weeks?) whenever I use the Open/Save option, the file chooser/browser works very, very badly...
none of the "Places" shortcuts, on the LHS, work - neither do the "Devices" shortcuts
as for my own "Bookmarks" shortcuts, they appear to be suffering from some kind of "sticky click" where as soon as you click on one, it tries to move this to somewhere instead of activating it - only if you put it back where it was (or move it up or down among the other Bookmarks) does it actually function and allow you to choose a file path
I have attached a screenshot to help demonstrate this (note: choosing the file to attach to this bug report had the same issue - even clicking on the path along the top behaves erratically)
