When renaming a file pressing CTRL+LEFT makes the focus move to the left column of Files #2677

Description

What Happened?

When renaming a file, pressing CTRL+LEFT makes the focus of the window move to the left column of Files (bookmarks, storage, network, etc.) instead of jumping the cursor to the word on the left. Pressing CTRL+RIGHT seems to work fine.

See the video below where I first select the file to rename, press F2 and then press CTRL+RIGHT which works and then press CTRL+LEFT which switches the focus to the left column.

  2. Press CTRL+LEFT and notice it switches the focus to the left column of Files

Expected Behavior

Pressing CTRL+LEFT should act like pressing CTRL+RIGHT while renaming a file and moving/jumping between words while renaming a file.
