[Bug 877347] [NEW] Quick search in subdirectory doesn't work

 

Public bug reported:

Typical use case, supposing you have a folder structure ~/first_folder/second_folder/ with several other sibling folders:
1) Open nautilus (pointing to ~/)
2) Type e.g., "fir" until first_folder is selected
3) Hit enter
4) Type, e.g., "sec" to select second folder

Step 4 doesn't work anymore after upgrading to oneiric (and consequently
updating nautilus). Usually, it doesn't do anything. With some random
clicking and tabbing, I sometimes got the search box to show again,
which usually contained just gibberish, as if it had concatenated all my
attempts (e.g., "firsecsecsec"). Hitting backspace only brings me back
to the previous folder, and if not doing anything the search box quickly
disappears.
