Public bug reported:

release: Ubuntu 10.04, Ubuntu 10.10
package: libgtk2.0-0 2.20.1-0ubuntu2 (Ubuntu 10.04), libgtk2.0-0 
2.21.6-1ubuntu1 (Ubuntu 10.10)

Creating a new folder using gtk filechooser dialog does not work when in
the current directory some network related file activity takes place in
parallel. When you press the "Create Folder" button in the gtk
filechooser dialog the input field for entering the folder name appears
for only a fraction of a second and then immediately vanishes again.

To reproduce the problem:
- download some big file using wget, firefox, chrome, ... to a directory, e.g. 
/home/jochen/foo/
- while the download is still running start an application which brings up a  
gtk filechooser dialog (e.g. start gedit, type some characters, then hit 
ctrl-s), in the filechooser dialog navigate to the same directory 
/home/jochen/foo and press the "Create Folder" button

Some additional observations:
- this only seems to concern network related file activity (I can also 
reproduce the problem when copying files from a network drive or with scp, but 
_not_ when copying local files)
- in Ubuntu 10.04 firefox even crashes after you hit the "Create Folder" button 
two or three times (but I could not reproduce that in Ubuntu 10.10)
