Bug Description
Chrome Version : 17.0.963.79
OS Version: ubuntu 11.10 (64Bit) / opensuse 12.1 (64Bit)
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.Set option to ask at every download where files should be saved
2.select downloadable file and click create folder in downloads dialogue
What is the expected result?
New folder should be created. Possibility to rename the new folder
What happens instead?
New created folder disappears after 1 or 2 seconds
This only happens in the Standard-Download folder which was created during the OS installation. Per default its named "Downloads".
I also tried other applications. For example i created a new text-document in libre office and choose "save to". I switched into /Home/mf/Downloads/ and created a new folder. It works. Then i tried chromium again, download a file (no matter which filetype), and it doesn't work. I am not able to create a new folder into Downloads via the download dialogue.

I'm hit by this bug as well, and I have for a long time.
It's not that you can't create a directory, it's that somehow the dialogue is refreshed every second or so, cancelling the make directory input. You can create a one-letter directory if you're really fast typing it and hitting Enter, before the dialogue refreshes.
