Public bug reported:
Now here's an interesting bug that I encountered when taking screenshots
of specific windows and then opening my home folder where I had saved
them. Nautilus completely hangs and, after a little work, I realised it
was because of one of the images file names.
I can confirm that a PNG with the following filename causes Nautilus to
hang and that the only resolution is to rename the file in the terminal.
(mv filename newname)

I can't say exactly which character causes the problem (and I have tried
to rule it out) but anyone can easily reproduce this and see for
themselves.
