Version:            (using KDE 4.1.3)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

When switching the "show hidden folders" option in a KFileDialog::getExistingDirectory, the dialog jumps to the root directory ("/").
This is very annoying and unexpected for the user. The dialog should stay in the currently selected folder.
