  @markg, I never used macOs finder, but looking at the internet images. This is exactly what I am proposing and what we have on dolphin today. A single list with only one scrollbar split in sections. 
   I am just trying to keep the same visuals on both (dolphin and file dialog) to avoid confusion for users,  they can get lost if you show different information.
