Bug Description

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a zip file containing a folder named 'asdf' containing a file named 'hello'
2. Open in Archive Manager
3. Right-click folder 'asdf', choose rename, then enter '..'
4. The progress screen will then hang
5. Running ps -fax reveals these processes:

17338 ? Sl 0:03 \_ file-roller --notify --default-dir=file:///home/mtandy/Documents/scotty --add file:///home/mtandy/Documents/scotty/asdf
17376 ? Ssl 0:00 \_ /usr/lib/p7zip/7z a -tzip -mem=AES128 -bd -y -mx=7 -- /home/mtandy/Documents/scotty/.fr-FQrq9c/asdf.zip .. ../hello

Expected instead: Either an error message (saying I can't rename my folder to ..) or a successful rename (giving me a hillarious zip file to break other people's stuff with.
