Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-core

Component problem: Gnome "Save as dialog" (I have guessed it might be
included in gnome-core package...)

Version: As of today, latest in feisty fawn

is reproducible: yes and easily

problem description:
Scenario 1:
Using Firefox, I select "Save link as", the "Save dialog" window appear but the 
current directory is not the intended one. I use the left pane of this dialog 
to select my home directory (at that point the name of the file I intended to 
save is cleared), the save button is not working until I figure out that the 
file name is missing. After typing the file name it works.
Scenario 2:
I open a text file using Text Editor (gedit), and I select "Save as", I want to 
save it in another directory, I use the left pane of the dialog window to 
change of directory, at that moment the filename is cleared and I have to 
re-type it.

expected behaviour:
Scenario 1:
After changing of directory using the left pane of the dialog, the file name 
should not be cleared, so hitting the "save" button would just save the file in 
the newly chosen directory with the name of the link (if the link was pointing 
to index.html and I had right clicked on it and chose Save link as, the saved 
file name should be index.html)
Scenario 2:
After changing of directory and pressing "save" the text file should be saved 
in the newly chosen directory with the same original name of the file.
