1. Download a file that takes a reasonable time to download into a directory.
2. "While the file is still downloading..."
3. Browse into the same directory and try to rename any other file.
4. Nautilus, I think, tries to refresh the contents if it detects a change in
the folder's contents.
5. So what happens here is that you are thrown out of the file rename dialog,
while you are in the middle of renaming the file.

I think this applies to all file operations which would require more than a
couple of seconds to complete.
