Until this issue is fixed, I created a workaround: a rename shell script invoked through Thunar's custom actions mechanism.

The script needs zenity and xdotool. More information on how to set it up is in the script.

I hope you'll find my junior bash skills useful :)

Please contribute back improved versions.
Let's hope we don't need to use this for long.

@thunar-devs: please fix this bug. It occurs very often, it closes ALL thunar windows and it makes Xfce feel unstable and unfinished. I'm a java dev, so I can't help much.
Thanks for your hard work up until now.
