--- Comment #9 from Nate Graham <[email protected]> ---
Ah, the key part is that you're performing these operations on the desktop of
the screen that's being disconnected. That's the relevant part. Thanks for the
screen recording; that helped a lot.

The way Folder View is implemented is that each screen gets its own instance.
So when you disconnect a screen, all the pending stuff on that screen's Folder
View instance goes away.

I think you're expecting for the "create new" dialog and in-progress renaming
to be moved to the remaining screen, right?

This may be technically possible, but it could be extremely complicated. If so,
I think it's not worth doing for an extreme edge case like this.

What do you think, Akseli?
