Bug Description

If there is more than one iso in the Downloads folder, the file dialog does not allow the selection of other than the first iso image. Regardless of what iso is picked in the dialog, the first iso image is used.

More precisely, it appears that usb-creator-gtk selects the valid ISO with the oldest file creation date. If this file is moved to a different folder, the next oldest date is selected. It also appears not to allow selection of ISOs in other than the original browse directory if a valid ISO exists. If there are no valid ISOs, then I am able to browse to a different directory and select any ISO, not just the oldest.

$ usb-creator-gtk -i <preferred iso image>.iso

issued from a command prompt will select and load the right ISO to create the USB startup, regardless of creation date
