Load Album dialog sometimes shows scores, not albums - and vice versa
Ubuntu 14.04, GIT commit: b482d00
I've experienced this and seen reports on and off for a while now. I don't have precise steps to reproduce. But since I can't find an issue report, I wanted to log it anyhow:
"Sometimes", if I go to File / Album, then press "Load", I get the regular "load Score" dialog (only showing me MSCZ files etc) instead of "Load Album". I suspect it has to do with whether I have previously opened any scores or saved any albums during the current session. Annoying in that it appears there is no way to load a previously saved album, until at some piont it just starts working again.

OK, after a restart, I got "Load Album" to work, but now I can't load *scores*. Is it as simple as, whichever dialog you view first in a given session, that becomes the only one that you can view?
Looks like this is probably only an issue on Linux - or at least, only when *not* using native dialogs, which currently seems to be the case only on Linux.
The problem seems to be here:

If we've created the dialog before, we simply re-use it rather than create a new one. I'm going to see if we can force the title and filter in an "else" clause here.
