            Bug ID: 424432
           Summary: Autocomplete makes it very hard to navigate folders
           Product: dolphin
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Archlinux Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: bars: location
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org
          Reporter: mcv at op.pl
                CC: kfm-devel at kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
The way autocomplete works have been changed recently (I don't know exactly
when, I do updates rarely). Now, when autocomplete suggests something and user
presses enter after entering a valid path in Dolphin, it navigates to the
autocompleted path, instead of the one that user entered.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have folders like this:
/mnt/nas/
/mnt/nas-backup/
(It's possible that Dolphin has to learn the possibilities, so perhaps manual
entering both paths is needed as a precondition).

2. In Dolphin, press Ctrl+L to enter the path to go to. Type "/mnt/nas", press
Enter.

OBSERVED RESULT
Dolphin goes to /mnt/nas-backup instead of /mnt/nas, because autocomplete have
suggested "/mnt/nas-backup".

EXPECTED RESULT
Dolphin navigates to what user entered: /mnt/nas.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Dolphin 20.04.2
KDE Plasma Version: 5.19.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.71.0
Qt Version: 5.15.0

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This kind of autocompletion would be OK, if there was no ambiguity, but in case
of one, it should not kick in.
