The side pane tree doesn't expand

[Marcus Sundman]

Binary package hint: nautilus

- Make sure nautilus defaults to list view and displays a side panel tree.
- Create a folder "foo" with a subfolder "bar". (I've made a ramdisk at /tmp/ram0 and the path /tmp/ram0/foo/bar/)
- Bookmark "bar" in nautilus.
- Select Places->bar in the panel (this should open a window displaying foo/bar/).
- Select "Home Folder" in the side panel tree.
- Collapse the parent of "foo" in the side panel tree (this hides foo and bar from the tree).
- Select Bookmarks->bar from the menu bar.
BUG: Now "foo/bar/" is displayed, but the side panel tree is not expanded showing foo or bar.

At this point you can make the tree behave weird in different ways. If you play around with it for a while you will not be able to select any directories in the tree (although you can still expand and collapse them). I don't know an exact procedure to make that happen, but here's another thing you can do:
- Expand the parent to "foo", so that "foo" is visible in the side panel tree.
- Collapse the parent to "foo", so that "foo" is no longer visible in the side panel tree.
BUG: Now you can select any folder from the side panel tree _except_ the parent of "foo". It stays "semi-selected" somehow. (Hiding and re-showing the side panel will fix it.)

Thanks for the bug report. This particular bug has already been reported, but feel free to report any other bugs you find.

This is not a duplicate of bug #32589, which is about directories not displayable in the side pane tree. In my case the directories are not special and could be shown in the tree.
Bug #32589, OTOH, seems to be similar to a bugreport I was just about to file, namely that the dir in the tree is not deselected when entering a hidden dir (which can't be shown in the tree).

That seems to be a similar issue. Could you attach a screenshot of your bug?
