The save torrent as prompt has a convenient list of the last save as file locations. Whats not convenient is you have to scroll down to the bottom of the list to hit your last location. It would be much more convenient if this list was reversed. In addition it might be nice if the other button was completely separated from the list and just existed as a browse button either above or below the save as list.

Cool, yeah for me the two things in that thread that stuck out was:

"I think the behavior in uTorrent is the most straightforward:"--- I agree totally, but I do like the paths list. The scrolling is a pain and the whole reverse thing also. Maybe a bookmark of paths IDK just putting that out there.

There was a comment about not changing paths often. This is not true with me as I organized my downloads as they are added. So about every 3 to 5 downloads I'm changing paths or creating new ones. A really weird thing that happens is after creating a new path, qbittorent when hitting other will usually open at the last path location I created or used, but sometimes after this heavy usage it will default and I'll have to re open the path where I was at. To get around this I've made a crap-load of shortcuts on my explorer windows, but it would be nice if that didn't happen.

I think both improve usability. Could also make the combo editable like in this pic:

QComboBox has this property.
