Current dialog is hard for use  
Written by avi9526 the 12 May 12 at 05:55. New
When You try open some files in some program - You get "Open file" dialog with list of files. But there is no options like "Icons size", "View mode":
1) It's not customizable, and thus - hard for use.
2) It's not unity-way - Your "Open file" is different from Your file-manager.

Solution #1: Use expirience of others DE

If You look to Windows or KDE "open file" dialog - You can see, that this dialog and it's options is similar to file-manager. So, I want something like that for GNONE (and Unity of course)

But, ubuntu can have different file-managers.
So my main idea:
Make "open file" dialog based on the embedded file-manager. So, when You hit "open file" button in some program - You get Your favorite file-manager that has buttons "Open", "Cancel", etc.
File-manager must support this feature. If he doesn't - system will use "fallback open file dialog" (that we have now).

so system monitor can show you a sum but i think it's better to show it like cpu history for multicores.
