Description Leonardo Ferreira Fontenelle 2012-01-15 15:48:05 UTC 
This bug is analogous to bug #591300, but I'm opening as a separate one because developers might want to close the two in different ways.

Open a folder with Nautilus, select a file, and press F2 to edit its name. Press Ctl+Del to remove a word from the filename, and see the file disapear from your sight. Press Ctl+Del more than once (multiple words in a long filename) for a bonus: the next files will disapear as well.

Pressing Control+Backspace works as expected, i.e., it removes the previous word.
