In 6af38a548eb5 with quickfilechooser, if I have some projects open using shared libs, and in Library Manager I select one of them and click Add JAR, the accessory in the filechooser initially shows e.g. (*) Relative path ../../../../../home/jglick ( ) Absolute path /home/jglick even though the actual path displayed in the filechooser is the libs directory where the nblibraries.properties resides. As soon as I select some actual subdir (or even delete the trailing '/'), then the display updates as expected. I guess FileChooserAccessory.updateFiles is getting called initially with new File("") for some reason.
The problem is in quickfilechooser. During opening it fires SELECTED_FILE_CHANGED_PROPERTY or SELECTED_FILES_CHANGED_PROPERTY property and value of chooser.getSelectedFiles() or chooser.getSelectedFile() is set to "/home/jglick" although really selected and displayed file/folder is different. It either should not fire that property because no file is selected or fire it with file shown in UI and not user home directory.
