I assume you're describing the behaviour of the Save dialog.
I think this is not a bug: when you type in "foo/bar", it's interpreted
as file "bar" in subdirectory "foo". If subdirectory
/home/john/Desktop/foo (or whatever) doesn't exist, you're informed
about it. This is useful when instead of navigating to the folder where
you want to save, you just type the path to the desired file.
