Subject: [PATCH] Improve launcher file dialog initial paths (#740)

- In the launcher, if an existing value is set for a file value (e.g.
Model), use that file's directory the initial directory when the
file dialog is opened with 'Browse'.
- In the launcher always set the intial directory for 'Load' to
cwd.
