Description
The "Look in" option in JFileChooser for GTK LAF does not have a desc Label, like in Motif or Metal. 
Steps to reproduce:
1) Run SwingSet2 demo
2) Set LAF to GTK
3) Select FileChooser Demo
4)Click any of three Filechooser buttons
5) See that the "Look In " option does not have any desc label, saying that it is a "Look in" option. 
This beheviour is observed on Solaris and Win Xp
Work Around
N/A
Evaluation
I believe this is in reference to the combo box which contains the current path.  Although Metal, Motif, and Windows L&Fs all have label for this component,  there is no such label under the GTK L&F.  This is intentional, so as to match the native GTK file chooser.  I used the file dialog for gedit under RH8.0 for reference.
