The problem I am having is that my Save Dialog location does not
equal my Load Dialog location. I think that my CFPreferences are
working--they're doing *something*. If I load a file, then every
time I go to Load File after that, even if I'm restarting the app
in-between, I go to that last load location, like I should.

The same thing for Save. I always go to the last Save location.
The problem is that I want the Save location and the Load location
to be the *same*. Now, shouldn't using the same preferencesKey do
that for me? It's not, and that's the problem. It's acting like I
have two different preference keys for save and load.
