Public bug reported:

The following happens for me very frequently. Say I have the following
folder structure:

A
|- B
|- C
|- some other files/folders...

I'm currently browsing the folder B. Then I go up one level, to A, by
pressing backspace. I then immediately double-click on the icon for
folder C to enter into it. Very frequently, this instead takes me back
into folder B.

What appears to be happening is that when I go up from B to A, if I
double-click the icon for C while the contents of A are being read from
disk and the thumbnails are being refreshed, the program registers that
I have double-clicked something, but after the thumbnail refresh has
finished, the "selected folder" reverts back to B. Hence, the program
thinks I double-clicked the icon for B instead.
