I have the following bug in cairo-dock. Say I have a launcher and its icon is

home/mahfouz/.icons/apps/firefox.png

Then I go to "modify this launcher", say I want to change the icon. So I click on "Open" to pick a new icon. Then I get the error message

Error stating file '/home/bkoenig/firefox.png': No such file or directory

I guess cairo-dock is trying to go back to the previous directory of the old icon but it doesn't give the correct path, it forgets about the middle part
".../.icons/apps/...

Yes but you don't care about this message, just choose the right path

I know I can ignore it but wouldn't it be nicer if cairo-dock keeps going back to the old directory? I guess this was the intention of this hack. Say I have a folder of icons, and I want cairo-dock to keep going back to that folder and not enter the path every single time.
