[Bug 899885] [NEW] File rename (e.g. using F2) accepts 2 characters only

 

Public bug reported:

Description:	Ubuntu 9.10
Release:	9.10

Nautilus 2.28.1

Press F2 to rename a file or folder, nautilus displays file or
foldername as editable, highlight part of name to be changed, start
entering replacement text, after 2 characters input nautilus will change
to a different file loosing changes already made.

Hence, editing names of file or folders is not possible in the quoted
version of nautilus in either list or symbol view. I find that a bit
restrictive for an ubuntu desktop user.
