[Bug 121255] New: File-Open opening 'last used' directory. But 'File-Save As' using default directory.

https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=121255

          Priority: P3
            Bug ID: 121255
          Assignee: ooo-issues@incubator.apache.org
           Summary: File-Open opening 'last used' directory. But
                    'File-Save As' using default directory.
          Severity: normal
        Issue Type: DEFECT
    Classification: Code
                OS: Windows, all
          Reporter: victor.sigal@gmail.com
          Hardware: PC
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
           Version: AOO 3.4.1
         Component: ui
           Product: framework

Bug 73494 not fully fixed. 
In case of 'Use OpenOffice dialog' is checked.

'File-Save As' always propose to save file in default directory, specified in
"Path-My Documents". 

But dialog 'File-Open' is trying to opening directory which was 'last used for
save' by any other OpenOffice application.

This is inconsistent behaivoir, especially desruptive when user working with
few applications at same time.

To reproduce: run Writer and Calc. 

in Writer 'File-Open' -  will open directory1. Close dialog.

now in Calc - 'File-Save As' - select and save file into directory2. 

in Writer 'File-Open' - will open now direcory2.

During runtime directory1 changed to directory2 in Writer.

I was able to replicate this on Mac OS X 10.9 Build 13A603 using Open Office
4.0.1.  The steps provided recreated the bug exactly.

I was able to replicate this bug running Writer and Calc Build:9714 Rev.
1524958 OpenOffice 4.0.1 on Windows 8.1.

This bug could cause users to accidentally save files in locations they do not
intend to as it is not intuitive that saving a file in one program will change
the default location in another program. When working quickly it is easy to
quickly click the save button, not realizing the default location for Writer
has changed since you saved a file using Calc previously.

Using a window 7 machine and OpenOffice 4.0.1 , I was able to duplicate the
issue. It would automatically go to the directory where changes (save or open)
were made.
