    Description

      To reproduce:
      - unzip the attached NB project (TestFileChooser.zip)
      - setup FX JAR and *choose JDK7 platform* (create one if needed)
      - run
          -> a sample app shows up (see TestFileChooser.png)
      - click on Choose File button
          -> a FileChooser window pops up
      - choose the "Vacances à Sydney.txt" file near TestFileChooser.java
          -> File.getAbsolutePath() and File.toURI() are displayed and look correct
          -> however File.exists() returns false
          -> see TestFileChooser2.png

      With MacOS + JDK6, the issue does not occur.
