Bug Description

Start gnome-system-log. Click on the gear button and select Open. The Open Log dialog opens, showing contents at default path /var/log. Dismiss that dialog. Again click the gear button and select Open. The same dialog opens, but the path is now ~. Closing and opening the dialog repeatedly toggles between the same two paths.

The behavior changes after the dialog is used to browse to a different directory and successfully open a file (but not after simply opening a file in the default directory). Then it remembers the last path as the default between invocations of gnome-system-log, as expected.
