You can have the file-chooser dialog sort the directories first by changing the Gtk setting:

org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser.sort-directories-first

to true.

You can use dconf-editor to do this with the GUI or through the terminal using

gsettings set org.gtk.Settings.FileChooser sort-directories-first true

At the moment Files does not honour this setting - it always sorts directories first. This could be changed if there is enough support and UX team approval. I'll set this as a wishlist item.
