040712, JDK 1.5.0 b57, GTK. I had the Open Project dialog open and selected "/" from the pulldown list of parent directories. I got an assertion error, and it kept on being thrown every time I closed the error dialog; had to hold down the Escape key to get the Open Project dialog to close. Seems to be reproducible.

I believe this is a regression; I am sure I have selected "/" from the chooser pull-down before in earlier builds.
Not always possible to close the Open Project dialog under this circumstance -> need to kill NB process. Seems to happen also if I select ".." from the chooser all the way up to the root.
Radek is on vacation till the end of this week. Should I find someone to do a hot fix asap?
it's probably duplicate of issue 45485 that was partially fixed by Radek.
There is even more obvious that there are many exceptions related to this assert (platform specific and conditional) - so deleted. /cvs/openide/masterfs/src/org/netbeans/modules/masterfs/MasterFileObject.java,v <-- MasterFileObject.java new revision: 1.28; previous revision: 1.27
