This IMHO is not a low priority, it's not just renaming files! It's even selecting them that is a problem. I use "List" view a lot and either when the window is half-screen width or more often when using the "Extra Pane" (where each pane is thus narrower), the 'status' bar pops up over the last entry almost every time. I know the 'status' tries to hop to the other side of the pane to allow this kind of thing, but that is seldom triggered or fixes the problem. If anything is selected, the only way to select the last file is to unselect all files with Ctrl-click then the 'status' is out of the way so the last file can be selected. And if you're selecting multiples, you have so resize the window really because losing all your selections to start again with the last one is ridiculous.

I realize this is likely a rare occurrence, and can be gotten around by adjusting the width of the window, but it is a minor bug. Possible solutions: Move status bar to the left side when working with files in that corner. Do not show status bar while renaming. Best IMHO: Give the file area a bottom margin of the height of the status bar.
