Summary: Size of file open/save dialogs incorrect on dual displays

Initial Comment:
The size of the open/save dialog is incorrectly
calculated/restored when the dialog is displayed on the
second display on a dual display system (Windows XP).

Basically, if the dialog opens on the secondary
display, then the previous size and position is lost.

Here are the tests I have performed to explore the
behaviour.

If the dialog appears on the primary display, the width
is correctly calculated/restore from previous settings.
 If the adjustments are made (with the dialog still on
the primary display) then these are correctly restored
on next opening of the dialog.  This is the behaviour I
would expect.

If the dialog appears on the secondary display,
previous size and position settings are lost.  I think
that the width of the dialog is being determined by the
minimum width of the tree component in the dialog. (See
attachment).  Any resizing of the dialog (with the
dialog still on the secondary display) is lost the next
time it is open.  This is abnormal behaviour.

If the dialog is opened on the secondary display,
resized and dragged it to the primary display.  The
size and position settings are restored on next open.
