Description Michał Sawicz 2015-06-04 20:24:25 UTC 
Original bug:

http://pad.lv/1462087

These steps are in Nautilus, but same happens in e.g. Shotwell, so a gtk bug.

Steps to reproduce:
- open Nautilus/Files
- right-click on an item
- choose "Move To..."
- click "Create Folder"
- type in a folder name (don't press enter)
- click on a different folder

Expected:
- folder creation is cancelled
or
- user isn't allowed to click on a different folder

Current:
- folder is created
- the created folder is opened (not the one the user clicked on)

These bugs are all about the awkwardness of in-place editing in lists.

They are all fixed in 3.17 by not doing that anymore. Instead, we have a popover for this.
