Bug Description
gtk2.0 2.12.0-1ubuntu1
some really important features are missing in the gtk filechooser. These are the use case:
Mr. X is saving/opening a file and this might happen:
1) he needs to rename an existing file because he wants to save the new file with the same name, but does not want to loose the old file (SAVE ONLY)
2) he sees a file, in the current view, that is no more needed, and he wants to delete it
3) he sees a spelling mistake in a filename/dirname
4) he wants to create a directory to save the new file, but he gives the wrong name to it, and wants to rename it (SAVE ONLY)
5) he sees a file that is not in the correct directory
6) he creates a new directory to rearrange the current dir, because he has lots of files that can be grouped
now if this happesn, Mr X has to open nautilus to do all these things. This is in my opinion not acceptable.

Thank you for your bug. You should consider that the work is done by busy people and volunteers and that doesn't cost you anything before writting that things are "not acceptable" though
