--- Comment #3 from prettyvanilla at posteo.at ---
As Dashon says, selection mode is now unexpectedly entered in Dolphin 22.12.0
whenever you press spacebar no matter how fast you type. Given Nate's original
observation I'm wondering if the responsible code has changed since and
originally tried to detect whether you were in typeahead mode (which has been
tied to typing speed for as long as I have been aware of the feature I think)
and doesn't now.

This is more annoying when the matched entry before the space is different from
the intended one which can easily happen, e.g. a folder may contain:
- One Directory/
- One Directory More/
- One True Directory/

Typing "One " will enter selection mode and will have "One Directory" selected,
when I intended to enter "One T..." to have "One True Directory" selected.
