Using the selection-changed signal does not work; it is never emited.
Anyway, as you suggested, I just get the value when the entire config
dialog is closed, and it works fine... except under Windows!
get_current_folder() always returns the first dir I set in the chooser,
with set_current_folder() method. Note that it works fine under linux and
Nokia/maemo.
