Re: Qt GUI Chooser initial selection

Hi Chris,

Thanks for noticing the regression and posting about it here. We can
definitely be bothered, but as a group mostly moved forward by
volunteers it's really helpful to have the extra sets of eyes finding
these issues as they come up.

The fix should be on the maint-3.8 branch in the next day and will be in
the next stable release.

Cheers,
Derek
