I don't think there would be any opposition to detecting paste events
on the file selector and opening the text input with the pasted path.
You should file a bug about it (be as civil as possible -- the GNOME
devs probably won't appreciate another 'file selector sucks' report).
Btw, the '/' key is what is usually used to open the text input - it's
not too hard to use.
