Scrolling in "single click to open" mode leaves behind text underlines

[Ashley Kyd]

Binary package hint: nautilus

Nautilus doesn't appear to clean up the text underlines in "single click" mode properly. This can result in several files having the hover state underline when using the mouse scroll wheel to stop hovering items.

Steps to reproduce:

# Enable "single click to open items" mode in the "File Management Preferences" dialog.
# Find a directory with a large number of files.
# Change the Nautilus view to "list view".
# Hover an icon (the text should be underlined).
# Scroll down the list with the mouse scroll wheel. The text underline stays on the previous file, and another appears on the new file.

Leaving the window or passing the mouse over the offending items removes all the hover underlines.
