Patch attached.
Issue was overriding the accept, reject functions so the dialog would never do the additional built-in processing to only allow selection of existing files.

In addition, it allows selection of a directory instead of a file name.

When using the fltk toolkit, uigetfile allows selection of an existing file only, which is similar to the matlab functionality.

Using the GUI for qt selection, uigetfile allows any input and will return a filename that does not exist.
