[NSSavePanel -browser:isColumnValid:] currently only checks that all filenames in the column are valid according to the delegate's -panel:shouldShowFilename: method. Thus, it won't notice if there are files in the directory that should be shown but aren't (e.g. because the disk contents changed, or because the delegate's filtering became more permissive).

(Reproduce e.g. with a save panel with a file type popup with entries "All files" and "*.txt only". Go to a directory with non-*.txt files, switch to "*.txt only", switch back to "All files", and the non-*.txt files won't be displayed.)

Since this method is only called from -validateVisibleColumns, and since a proper check here involves reading in the directory, building a new list of files, and comparing, I think we might as well return NO always and just reload the column. However, due to NSBrowser internals, this would cause us to lose the selection every time the columns are validated. Probably best to have NSBrowser preserve the selection, though.

(this is "tests/gui/NSSavePanel/setDelegate_reload.m" in the 'new' test suite)
