           Summary: Save Dialogues prematurely save when using keyboard
                    navigation to enter directory
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: kde-51 at dotancohen.com


Version:            (using KDE 4.3.0)
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

Steps to reproduce:
1) Open ksnapshot and create a screenshot.
2)Press "Save As", click on "Home", and click on the background of the
directory list.
3) Now you can do a quick keyboard navigation. Enter the directory name in
which you want to change. Then press
ENTER.

What the user expects to happen:
One would expect that you only change into this directory when pressing ENTER.

What actually happens:
The open dialogue does not only change into the directory, but saves also the
file in this dir afterwards.


This is unintuitive. If the cursor / focus is in the directory list ENTER
should only be used for the navigation in the directory tree. Only when the
user changes to the filename input field (by pressing TAB) and press ENTER
would the user expect the file to get saved.
