Can't select favorite as the directory directly

[Micket]

Using data-target-file-type: dirs and selecting a Favorite and pressing "Select" doesn't pick up the directory. I have to select something on the right hand side, but the . directory isn't selectable, there is no way to directly use a favorite.
Instead, I have to go 1 dir up, which in my case means hundreds of project directories, and requires that I scroll to my project area manually.
I also have no way of not selecting a subdirectory when such a dir exists, again forcing me to go up 1 dir.

I'm also not sure my users would necessarily recognize . and .. even if they were selectable.

Hi, thanks for the ticket - but I have to say it won't be worked. This is being replaced in 3.1 with a native path_selector widget.

OSC/ondemand#1571

That said - it (the newer implementation) doesn't show favorites at all at the moment (and likely won't in 3.1 because it's coming soon) but I made a ticket for the same.

Well I should say, it won't be worked by OSC. If you submit a patch for this issue (or the other), I'd be happy to review and merge it.

I was new to the file picker to begin with, wasn't aware of the native widgets WIP. I'll be happy to jump over to 3.1 as soon as possible!

Well there's an open pull request to maybe fix this so I can reopen.

Also - I can't seem to replicate on OOD 3.0.1 and this library at 3.0.1 as well.
