'Relocate folder' functionality has no path validation.

1. run clean portable XnViewMP
2. open Settings (F12)
3. goto Catalog → Catalog tab
4. press 'Relocate...' button and select root directory, e.g. c:\

Actual behaviour:
User can type anything in 'New path:' field

Expected behaviour:
Guess there shall be standard folder selection dialog

Thanks to your detailed description I can reproduce the problem.

partially fixed in 1.4.0b1:
- OK - it does not allow to replace root path (e.g. E:\) with not_valid_path
- BUG - it still allows to replace long path (e.g. E:\test\) with not_valid_path

This problem is supposed to be fixed in XnView MP 1.4.0. Please check and confirm the bug fix here.

1.4.5
issues still remain - it still allows to replace long_path (e.g. "e:\test\") with not_valid_path (e.g. "qqq")
