This was also recently reported against Wireshark in OpenSolaris:

http://bugs.opensolaris.org/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=6926835

I really believe that the solution is to disable calling
gtk_dialog_set_response_sensitive() as was originally proposed and as Debian
have for several years now.

Basically by disabling "Open" button we are also disabling ability of
processing text from "Location:" when Enter is pressed.

I think it's more useful to let user open file from keyboard like this:
control-O
control-L (if Location is not active)
<type filename>
press enter

than not allow to try open different file type where user get an error later
anyway.
