I've just tried this with Kubuntu 11.04 running in virtualbox.  There is no 
icon for creating a new folder on the save-as box, though it is possible to 
right-click in the save-as box and create a new folder that way.

So it seems as if it's a general problem with kde rather than one specific to 
opensuse.
