My OS is Ubuntu 16.04, with XFCE version 4.12.1 installed, Thunar
version 1.6.10, which is the latest available in the repositories. All
updates are installed. I'm experiencing this issue multiple times a day.

sudo apt-get install thunar
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
thunar is already the newest version (1.6.10-2ubuntu1).
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

If it's fixed in 1.6.11 on Xubuntu 16.04, the patch should be present on
ALL versions of Ubuntu.

I experience this bug at least 5-10 times per day, sometimes a lot more
when working on projects with lots of files that have similar names. It
does happen often enough just renaming other files, like maybe a 1 in 20
chance, but I have yet to loose data as it has successfully renamed all
of them. It crashes so much when working on said projects though, that
I'v actually went to using the terminal using "for i in filename*" loops
wiht various regex matches and the cut command to mass rename files
instead of Thunar.

I will be building Thunar from the latest source and overwriting the
system version to see if that fixes it, as it appears regular Ubuntu
dosen't have the latest version of Thunar in the repos. Someone please
get this fixed asap.
