Here, I get files from folder2 listed, as expected.

What exactly do you mean by icon? Do you mean a file icon in the
standard file open dialog?

Afaict, MEditor and Edita work the same in this regard: File/Open uses
the directory of the currently active file tab. You can also right
click on any file tab to use the directory from that tab.
In addition, Edita 0.1.9 now has a project tree which lists all the
include files found in the current source (and the parent if there is
only one file which is known to include it) so they are only a double
click away (keyboard handling has just been added for 0.2.0).
Are you asking for an option along the lines of "use the working
directory (current_dir()) in File/Open, rather than the directory of
the file currently being edited"? A couple of other suggestions:
An Open by Dir option which lists directories in most recently visited
order, before showing the standard file open dialog.
A user-definable tools sub-menu which opens specified directories.

Pete
