I broke that code several weeks ago. I'm not sure it's worth fixing it
as we would need to rewrite the Save As dialog again (I dropped the
previous code in favour of more easily readable and maintable code).

While I did this, I intended to write a mail whether we should drop the
GEANY_USE_WIN32_DIALOG flag with all its related conditional,
potentially broken code. But obviously I forgot to do.

Do you really like the native Windows dialog that much more than the
(IMO) more powerful GTK dialogs?

Enrico
