Comment 16 for bug 1740952

The patch works for me (fixes the crash) and I agree with the point of fixing it at its source.

However, it is annoying that the previously selected symbol is lost in the tree and the tree resets to the top of the list. Would you be adverse to keeping that functionality in the rename routine? I think the patches don't interfere with each other (or just keep the re-select if exists line)
