                    permission are changed externally

SUMMARY
Demonstrative video: https://youtu.be/vajJ5kUcY3Q
If I change folder permissions of a folder I've already visited from the
terminal and then try to create a file inside it, the GUI either doesn't allow
me to do things I have permissions for or allows me to start doing things I
can't finish.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a folder that is owned by the root
2. Visit that folder
3. Give the user write permission to that folder
4. Attempt to add a file to that folder

OBSERVED RESULT
Dolphin doesn't allow creating a file even though I have permissions to do so

EXPECTED RESULT
Dolphin should allow me to create a file

FURTHER STEPS TO PRODUCE
5. Reopen Dolphin
6. Visit that folder again
7. Remove write permissions to that folder from the user
8. Attempt to add a file to that folder

OBSERVED RESULTS
Right click menu appears as if I could create a file but Dolphin returns
"Access denied" after finishing the file creation dialogue

EXPECTED RESULTS
The options to create a file should be greyed out
