Please make Inventor "dumb" save dialogue play nice with "smart" Windows Explorer

The office I work in has thousands of drawing files in dozens of folders. Every time I need to save, open, place, reference, or reassign a file in inventor I have to hunt down the file path, as that is the option in the Inventor save dialogue box. Windows explorer has a search function as well as a recent document list among other advanced features which make navigation a cinch. Why not make the software play nice with Windows by adding a "browse" button like almost any other software, which opens up a windows explorer window for locating files?

 

p.s. This very form has a "browse" button. Why not inventor?

As far as I understand your issue, would it even help a lot to have the ability to create buttons for all important folders - just like the "position list" in the AutoCAD-browser...?!
