I wonder how this fares against Default Folder, whose company somewhere in their (archived?) website argues theirs has the desired features without any unnecessary "bloat" as found in Action Files (IIRC), but that could just be sly marketing on their part for all I know.

However, it is true that Default Folder already does everything I want, as far as Open/Save dialog boxes are concerned. But a proper comparison between the two (features, system speed) would be very interesting.
