Comment (by Karvjorm):
I'm sorry about my mistake about speaking s parent folder.

Yes, I had understood that (and that is why I filed this here and not at
OsDrawer.net, or what it is).

is accessible from there.

The problem is that everything else is _not_ accessible from there in this
case. Not if you first open a text file from the Desktop folder and then
try to open another text file from home folder, for example. Surely, you
can do it by clicking the home folder at the window below, and then
Desktop, a NTFS Volume (in my laptop) and the home folder are visible via
that selection component (and it can act as a twitcher). But if you do not
do this, there is only a Desktop available. And this is a misleading
situation, because the triangle at the right indicates normally that there
is a menu to open.
