This doesn't do it either. I'm wondering if the Centre and CentreOnScreen
methods don't work for Windows? There is some hint of that in the wxWindows
documentation.

wxFileDIalog is not a true wxDialog, but just a wrapper around the windows API that creates and shows the system dialog, so most of the wxWindow methods will have no effect on it.

I guess somewhere I knew that. It's interesting that the Win32 extension set
for Python also wraps the windows API (I believe), but centers this very
same dialog by default ... oh well.
