      JFileChooser when used with the DIRECTORIES ONLY option (or
      without it as far as I can see) doesnt allow the user to
      select a root directory. Whilst this behaviour probably isnt
      that much of a problem with a Unix file system its a pain with
      windows. I am trying to use it to select a resource which is
      sometimes in the directory tree, and sometimes on CD-ROM. In the
      latter case the path is just to the root directory of the CD-ROM
      which is of course impossible to get select.

      This is partly a duplicate of bug 4239219, but Im resubmitting
      because its hidden pretty deep in there, and also thats reported
      as an ease of usage wheras this is a bug.
