Public bug reported:

Here is how to reproduce this bug:
* Open gedit
* Type something and click Save as...
* Then click Create New Folder button
* Type the name of the folder and click on it in the dialogue, then go back to 
the folder above it
* Now open nautilus, navigate to the folder and rename it

Gedit should now crash. This is repeatable on my system. I am guessing
the same bug can also be found in other programmes that use the nautilus
interface for saving files (have not tested this, but it seems more than
likely). The Create New Folder step above can be skipped, simply
renaming an already existing folder.

This problem is made worse because the Save file dialogue does not
include the option for renaming files there without launching a separate
nautilus instance.
