Wouldn't it be cool if there were a Cygwin library (cygctl.dll) which was
API compatible with the Windows file dialogs, so you could just compile and
link your apps (like XEmacs) against it and get nice Windows-style dialogs
with Cygwin-style paths?
But I should shut up, since I have no intention to write this myself. :-)

(Now a Cygwin version of gvim (not an X version), that would really be
useful. Perhaps, if I ever have some time, and 6.0 is out, I will try to
do a port.)
