Public bug reported:

When I try to edit my bookmarks in Nautilus, the Nautilus code
continually overwrites the "Name", even when I am trying to enter my own
name.

Whoever wrote this dialog, tried to be too d*mned smart, without testing
it properly, or getting feedback from users.

I have several bookmarks whose last subdirectory is, for example,
"Documentation".

/media/ENKRYPTED_1/homer/engineering/src/Documentation
/nfs/box/backups/homer/engineering/src/Documentation
smb://192.168.21.115/c$/mosaic/Documentation

The d*ng that wrote this dialog thought that every bookmark should be
called "Documentation".

Please don't discard or mess with what people are trying to do -- you're
just upsetting us.

When I try to edit "Name", very often it trashes what I'm entering,
replacing it with "Documentation".
