This issue is still present for unity (5.12-0ubuntu1) desktop under Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit on Firefox 12.0+build1-0ubuntu0.12.04.1.
I used the upload dialog at skydrive.live.com (although I'm sure any will work). The upload file dialog only contains "Add to bookmarks", "Show hidden files", "Show size column", but it would be more appropriate to match other features by having it show the full context menu for Nautilus, with the show hidden files option available.

Setting status to "confirmed".
I suggest priority "Wishlist" (ideas for new features which do not yet exist.)
