As part of the big bug review for 16.04 LTS I have tested this on 15.10 and the bug is still there. I think this is a feature request rather than a bug.

This could be done either as a right click (context menu) function, or a slow double click on the file name. --------------------------------------------------- Desired solution - When a file that can be renamed is selected in the Dash, pressing "F2" should make the file name editable by opening a inline file edit in a similar style to the Nautilus inline file name edit box. Pressing ENTER or RETURN or moving the focus should fix the name change. Pressing ESC should cancel the name change. - This should apply to all files with editable names e.g. files and folders in the file lens, mp3 files in the music lens, video files in the video lens, etc... - If a item which does not have a editable name is selected, pressing F2 should do nothing. - Contact Rosie or Otto for the visual assets showing exactly how the inline file edit box should appear.
