You should send patches to emacs-devel instead.
The new file dialog is controversial, and many prefer the old one.
So I think a patch should make it possible to choose between the new and
old one, probably a configure test for both is needed.  The default 
might
well be to use the new if it is available, as long as it can be changed.

I'll check the patch.
