PR# 19253 EV_FILE_DIALOG.file_name returns wrong value

Severity: Non-critical

Synopsis: EV_FILE_DIALOG.file_name returns wrong value
Description
Features `file_name' and `file_title' form EV_FILE_DIALOG do not return an empty string when the cancel button is pressed contrary to the comments. These features return a string that ends in "commands" (i.e. the `file_title' is "commands"). The comment says "empty"; might want to change it to "is_empty". I marked this problem as non-critical severity and low priority, because it is easy to work around, but it seems like it should be easy to fix. Also, I'm not sure why `file_title', `file_path', and `selected_filter_index' are in "Status report" instead of "Access".

Additionally, if you select an item then cancel, the result is that item. In other words, the cancel button does not work.
