If I launch GIMP on Windows from the Start menu, create a new image, then save
it, the default folder shown is My Pictures, which seems a fair enough choice.

However, if I open an image from Windows Explorer, and then create a new image
in GIMP and go to save the new image, the default folder is 'GIMP 2.0\bin'. I
then have to navigate my way back out of this folder.

    I do set the working directory to where gimp-win-remote is launched from. I believe I had to do this, because GIMP wouldn't start correctly. Now this was way back in the GIMP 1.x days. I'll have to look at this a bit further.
