GtkFileChooser save as defaults focus on treeview

Bug Description

I usually have "Browse for other folders" folded out in my gtk save dialog.
This triggers doing a search in the current folder as soon as I start typing on the keyboard (see the attached screenshot).

What I expected to happen was that the "Name" field would have focus so I could start writing the file name and just press Enter to save it. This is what happens when "Browse for other folders" isn't folded out.

If this is by design it is quite annoying that you need to tab 6 times forward (or above 9 times back) to get to the Name-textfield.

I've recreated this both in Gedit and Gimp but I guess all applications using this save dialog suffers from this behavior.
Using Ubuntu Gutsy with latests updates.
