Dialog after creating a new category from the ledger view

SUMMARY
Entering a new ledger entry allows to auto-create a new category if it does not
exist. The dialog explains that the parent category will be Expense/Income, but
can be changed in the next dialog. Selecting the correct parent category in the
next dialog does not work as intended. Instead of adding the new category under
the selected parent, it duplicates the whole category structure under the new
parent entry.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Enter new ledger entry
2. Enter non-existing category, e.g. "Food:Groceries:Fruit"
3. Click "Yes" in next dialog
4. Change parent category, e.g. from "Expense" to "Expense:Food:Groceries"
5. Click "OK"

OBSERVED RESULT

New category structure is "Food:Groceries:Food:Groceries:Fruit"


EXPECTED RESULT

New category structure should be "Food:Groceries:Fruit"
