--- Comment #4 from Fernando M. Muniz <fernandommu...@gmail.com> ---
(In reply to Méven Car from comment #3)
> The create directory dialog has some logic to interpret "/" as new-folder to

> As such it has limitations to which characters can be used in names.

> This was a trade-off the need to create folder whore name contain "/" is

> 
> Renaming folders inline has not such a need and allows to had / to folder

> 
> We could have the dialog allow "/" to be escaped with "\/".
> This would still have the "inconsistency".
> But I don't consider this a real one: the dialog is clearly not the same
> thing as inline renaming and creating is not renaming.

> This behavior is much older than KDE Frameworks 6.0.

I believe that if Bug 494988 gets confirmed, then this bug loses its reason for
