I just found a solution: In the file upload dialogue, hit Ctrl-l to
bring up to the address line instead of the path bar. It would be nice,
if the address bar were there on default, or if there would be a hint on
the bottom of the box, how to bring it up.

If this should stop working at some point of time, I also just found a
work-around: In about:config set the option
ui.allow_platform_file_picker to false. Firefox then uses a basic build
in file upload dialogue, that has an address line. This also shows that
this a problem in gnome and not in firefox, because the default file
picker is provided by the platform.
