You have been subscribed to a public bug:
Before Ubuntu 8.10, if you wanted to save a file in a new folder, behavior was
like that:
Press ctrl+s ("save as") in an application like gedit. Gnome file chooser
opens, press "Create Folder", enter folder name, press return. New folder was
already selected, by pressing two times return you could save your file.
In 8.10 the new folder is not selected any more, you have to double click on it
and then press save. This is especially annoying if you are in a directory with
many folders - then you first have to scroll down to find the folder you just
created.
I tested this with several applications (firefox, gedit) and an up-to-date
Ubuntu 8.10 (AMD64).
