Oh, as a follow up, apparently it's not possible to open up a network location without first mapping the drive in Windows. Typically you can just go to "\192.168.0.xxx\share" in the dialog, however not any longer. Also "smb://192.168.0.xxx" doesn't work with Ctrl-L (it will not accept the colon), and if you try to map it with "Connect to Server" in the File Open dialog won't allow it either. The hint text lists:

Server addresses are made up of a protocol prefix and an address.  Examples:
smb://gnome.org, ssh://192.168.0.1, ftp://[2001:db8::1]

And the list of "Available Protocols" and "Prefix"es is blank.

I'm sure there was a reason to remove the native file browser, but wow I really wish they hadn't done it.
