That will be very welcome! :)
One thing I have always liked about gqView and GIMP is that in their
file dialogs, the path fields support tab-completion just like Bash
prompts. Path history is especially slick, as potential matches show
up in a drop-down list and I can use a couple of arrow-key presses,
followed by <Enter>, to go where I want. Every time I have to browse
deep into a directory tree on a Windoze machine, I miss this
functionality! :-p

Great! :) At this rate, by the time Pan hits version 1.0 it will be
the greatest newsreader alive... and I'm not really kidding there!
