Description edA-qa mort-ora-y 2016-06-09 07:13:43 UTC

File|Open always goes back to the home folder if there is no current document. Previously it would open at the previous location, which seems more correct -- especially after a Close All operation.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open a file
2. Close all files
3. Choose Open

Actual Results:  
Home folder is presented

Expected Results:  
Previous open folder

use last location of open file dialog instead of home if current document has no valid url (e.g. untitled)

Bug 364128 - Open without an active document uses home location instead of last open/file location

fixes btw. open of file without name, as toLocalFile() needs a guard
