[Bug 1467226] [NEW] Can't use national chars in directory names

 

Public bug reported:

I would like to rename directory and use national chars inside it but it
is not possible with nautilus.

When I change name and try to put national char (e.g. polish char "ń",
created on keyboard using regular char "n" and right Alt) the rename
input box disappear and directory search filter appear. This distract
directory rename process and make use of national chars impossible.

How to reproduce
- setup Ubuntu language to English
- setup Polish keyboard

- open application Files (Nautilus)
- select directory
- press F2 (directory rename process), (directory name became editable)
- press char n+Right Alt  

What should happen:
it should put Polish char ń in directory name and don't interrupt rename process.

What happen wrong:
the rename process is interrupted (directory stop being in edit mode) and directory search filter appear

Please block file search filter when directory rename is in progress.
