Works for me. Also, I can hardly imagine this to be a problem specific to 
SciDAVis, since the dialog is a standard one (implemented in Qt). Possibly 
it's some problem with the encoding your system is using for the filenames, 
like the filename being encoded as iso-8859-1 or something and SciDAVis/Qt 
trying to interpret filenames as utf-8. I'm not sure about the details of 
filename encoding on Linux, but setting everything to unicode/utf-8 
(LANG=de_DE.utf8) works for me.

Table templates definitely need to be updated, yes - thanks for reporting.
