Public bug reported: Steps: 1) in a empty directory, create 2 (or more) directories with the same prefix (e.g. '2014', '2015') 2) start a directory picker in any application that use it : nautilus, gthumb, ... 3) click on the 'Type a file name' button (the pen on the top left) 4) use the directory picker to select one of these directories ('2014') 5) you can't - there's still the prefix ('201')
