Comment (by Thorin):

 Replying to [comment:14 gk]:
 > Okay, the plot thickens. I opened the file by navigating via the URL
 bar. That's cool. The bug occurs if one opens the file Ctrl+O first, then
 close the browser and reopens it. Adding the ux team for input as to
 whether we want to change anything here.

 Not just Ctrl+O which is just a shortcut key to trigger the open dialog. I
 tested if the remembered location changed by dragging and dropping a file
 into the urlbar, and that doesn't change anything. So it's explicitly
 triggered by the windows open dialog.

 What happens on a Mac?
