Bug Description

When you are in the context of saving a document in a text editor, or a web page in a browser, or any other similar situation, the Save dialog of the system opens. I assume this is still part of nautilus – please redirect me to the appropriate software if not.

After successfully creating a folder there the focus remains on the create-folder popup mini-form. The popup resets and closes but the focus still remains on it – specifically, on the Create button. Because of this, hotkeys like ENTER or ALT+S try to submit the reset form again (and then the popup opens again) instead of being interpreted as Save.

As a workaround, I just noticed that you can hit TAB to shift the focus to the Save button. But still, this is a minor bug.
