What program are you seeing that?
I use Linux and Windows and don't see that. I just checked with saving a file in the Windows version of Orca (3d slicer), Save brings up the standard Windows dialog that has all the folders on the left panel and the contents of the currently selected folder on the right panel. It's virtually identical to the Save dialog box of Orca under Ubuntu right down to dividing local directories on top of the left panel and network share on the bottom left.
That's the default Save in Windows. A program has to go out of its way to avoid the standard Windows Save dialog box which is the same problem Linux programs can have.
