hi...

In previous versions of Nautilus, when hitting F2, to rename, you had the following behavior:

- hit it once >> rename and only highlight the filename, without the extension
- hit it twice >> rename and highlight everything, including the file's extension

It appears that this second, oh so handy, behavior no longer exists.  
Figure this is an annoying regression that ought to be fixed.

Otherwise, love the improvements since 3.18
