           Summary: "Save as" file picker usability flaw when using
                    keyboard
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: Ondrej.Machulda at seznam.cz


Version:            (using KDE 4.3.1)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open existing file in some KDE app (e.g. kwrite)
2. File > Save As
3. File picker appears, note that "Name" is pre-filled (because we are saving
already named file)
4. Get focus into file list, "name" field is removed
5. Use keyboard to browse through directory, if there are any ordinary files
and you list over any of them, it's name gets into the "name" field
6. Continue using keyboard, the name of the last ordinary file remains in the
"name" field, and you try to open sub-directory (using Enter)
7. Sub-directory is opened, but it just flashes, the file is instantly saved
with the name that was in the name field, and file picker dialog is
automatically saved.

Expected Behaviour
7. Sub-directory is opened, without saving the file!
