Bug Description

Binary package hint: alacarte

Created new menu folder, and attempted to move item to that folder. Had successfully done this with three folders and about a dozen items in the same session just before this attempt with the fourth folder. Received an error message about not finding item, but I can launch item from Applications.

Currently, the fourth folder is not displayed, and the item is at the prior level. The prior three folders were created and the items moved into them successfully.

The item in question was MIT Gnu Scheme, installed via Add/Remove.

The release is 8.04 LTS beta.

This is repeatable only with this item.

Hypothesis: The item is "MIT/GNU Scheme"; perhaps the '/' is not being properly escaped.
