Title:
  Selecting a folder to save to loses focus on file name

Status in GTK+:
  Expired
Status in One Hundred Papercuts:
  Invalid
Status in gtk+2.0 package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  This bug has occured multiple times before, however the fixes no
  longer seem to be working:
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+2.0/+bug/130224,
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+2.0/+bug/22322, and
  their duplicates.

  In short: the task of saving a file is broken as soon as the user
  chooses a different folder.  Typing no longer renames the file but
  instead starts searching for folders in the list, however the text
  selecting the filename is still highlighted.

  I believe the task of naming a file to save is much more common than
  having to do a text search to find a folder to save to (they're
  already alphabetically ordered).  Accordingly, the filename should
  never lose focus, even when the user is active inside the other parts
  of the file save dialog (eg making/selecting a folder to save to).

  
  To reproduce: in Gedit, make a new file and File->Save as.  Click a folder 
and then start typing.  A similar thing happens if you save a picture in 
Firefox.
