Create a directory and a subdirectory starting with a dot (ie c:\Program
Files\.dir\.subdir), then navigate into .subdir with the file opener dialog
and push the "up one level" button, it will tell you that the path is
invalid.

In case you were wondering why I need such directory names anyway. I don't.
Just happened to have a demo project under "C:\Program Files\.NET Compact
Framework Samples\.NET Compact Framework-based Deployment Sample" :)

This appears to be fixed in VS2005 (B1).
