Bug#483786: Glipper messes up GTK file selection dialog text entry

Package: libgtk2.0-0, glipper
Severity: normal

When Glipper is running, standard GTK file selection dialogs
become very annoying to use: when typing a path in standard
open/etc dialogs, the auto-completion gets automatically
activated, unpredictably.

When trying to type "/usr", a number of things may happen:
0. After "/u", "sr" appears and is selected; typing "s"
   continues with "r" selected.  This is the expected
   behavior, which I get without glipper running, and very
   occasionally happens with glipper running.

1. After "/u", "sr" appears and is selected; typing "s"
   completes to "/usr" unselected; if one types "r" at this
   point the dialog shows "/usr/r".

2. After "/u", "sr" appears and is not selected; typing "s"
   at the point would get "/usr/s", "r" at this point would
   yield "/usr/src".
