This is a Windows problem. You will see the same thing in most Windows programs, e.g. Notepad and Wordpad. Only MS Word does not have this problem. Since the problem is in the Windows standard File-open dialog box, we would have to reverse-engineer it to fix this problem. This would be a huge undertaking. (The MS Word programmers probably just asked the Windows API programmers how to fix this; not something we can do.)
Also, the DOS/NT "DIR" command has the same problem.
In summary, we consider it a Windows flaw which would be too complicated to work around.
