Bug: nearly every time when opening a patch the file dialog returns to the plugdata folder

This is very annoying. Sometimes it will show the directory of the currently opened patch, but 9 out of 10 times it will revert back to the plugdata documents folder.

This causes a lot of navigation issues when you are trying to open patches from a specific folder and you have to click a dozen times to get back to where you want to be.

Expected: file browser always starts in the same folder as the currently opened patch/tab.

I think the normal behaviour is that it would open the folder you last opened using the file browser? That would also work if you don't have a patch open.

Yeah I guess. This would work OK too, but that's certainly not the behavior I'm getting.

Most of the time it reverts back to the plugdata folder which I've almost never needed to be in.

be0142ac4 fixes at least one bug related to this, but there may be more bugs left.
