Description ar 2013-02-15 00:10:18 UTC 
Completion for path works only once, then the tab is evaluated as jump to the next field.

This affects eg. Firefox and Chromium. Example:

Open a Save File dialog, clear the "Name:" field, type "/us" there and press tab; completion is correctly to "/usr/".

Then immediately append "lib3" and press tab again. Instead of completing to "/usr/lib32/", the focus jumps to the "Save in folder:" field.

Tested with GTK+ 2.24.15-git (0004fe6c).
