Xee "open" window does not remember last directory under Snow Leopard #199

First of all, if you have any Haxies, InputManagers, SIMBL plugins or
similar operating system hacks installed, please remove them first, restart
the program, and make sure the bug is reproducible without them.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Use command-O to launch the open window, drill down a couple of
subfolders, open an image.
2. Use command-O again to launch the open window.  In Leopard, Xee
remembers your last directory and starts at that location, in Snow Leopard
it does not.  It starts you either in your Documents folder or in your
User's home directory

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Explained under steps to reproduce

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
2.0 under SNOW Leopard (10.6 or 10.6.1)

I can't reproduce this. Perhaps it got accidentally fixed in the development 
version? Not 
sure.

Wait, with some further testing I managed to trigger it. It seems you have to 
browse 
several levels deep to trigger it. If you don't browse too deep, the directory 
is 
remembered.

So basically this seems to be a Snow Leopard bug, not a Xee bug. I suggest 
filing a 
report with Apple.

I'm not sure that this is a Snow Leopard issue.  Xee appears to be the only
application that is not remembering its last active directory. (Firefox, MS 
Office,
etc) are not currently having issues.  

Is there any rationale/advice you could provide that I could use to initiate a 
bug
report with Apple?  Unless I can point them in the right direction, they're 
going to
say its an app problem.

The main thing is that Xee DOES in fact remember its last active directory. It 
is only 
when you start digging into deeper subdirectories that it forgets. That is 
entirely outside 
of Xee's control, so it must be a Snow Leopard bug.

Try picking a file in a top-level directory in your home directory, such as 
Downloads, 
and it should be remembered. At least, it does for me.
