Initial Comment:
When you browse for any file in GRASS, you can always see hidden folders and files, so it takes much more time to find what you are looking for. Is it possible to change this behavior?

No, AFAIK it is a feature of Tcl/Tk and there isn't anything we can do
about it. Hopefully the new wxPython GUI file selector widget will allow
more control.
