Create a new directory in KDE Save As dialogue

Question

When using the KDE Save As dialogue, how does one create a new directory using the keyboard only (i.e. no need to grab the mouse)? The Create New Directory button is not readily accessible via TabTabTabTab and then getting back to the Filename control is another TabTabTab mess. I tried Ctrl+N and some other obvious guesses to no avail.

Additionally, I tried giving the filename as newDirectory/someFile.txt however that throws an error that the file is inaccessible (presumably due to the illegal / character in the name).

I'm currently using KDE 4.9 on Kubuntu 12.10.

Try F10. This shortcut is actual for Dolphin file manager and should work in Save As dialogue.
