Title:
  file-roller extract dialog can't create folders under Desktop folder

Status in “file-roller” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  When using file-roller to extract files from an archive, in the file
  chooser dialog where one can choose the target folder to extract to,
  there is a "Create Folder" button that allows the user to create new
  folders on the fly from withing the file chooser dialog.

  This works fine in all folders except the user's ~/Desktop folder -
  when navigating to the desktop folder and clicking the "Create Folder"
  button, a new entry appears in the file list, with the text "Type name
  of new folder" highlighted to allow easy replacing - but the entry
  immediately disappears as if the ESC button was pressed. Sometimes it
  disappears almost immediately and you can only see a slight flicker,
  while in other cases the entry persist enough time to allow the user
  to type in a few characters - but in all cases the entry is canceled
  after a few seconds at most.

  Again, create a new folder works as expected in all cases I've tried,
  except when trying to do this at the user's ~/Desktop folder.
