           Summary: opening bookmarks with spaces in the path causes
                    nautilus to close
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: nautilus
        AssignedTo: seb128 at ubuntu.com

Upstream bug report:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=315322

Please describe the problem:
When Nautilus is set in navigational mode and one opens a bookmark path with a
space in the name, such as my downloads folder "Hentede filer", it will open the
window then promptly close it again.

Another funny effect is that nautilus will also interpret "Hentede filer" as two
identical dirs in the sidepane treelist.

Since Browser mode is default in Breezy this means we are broken on EVERY 
SINGLE danish install with a bookmark to the DEFAULT download folder.

Steps to reproduce:
1. create and bookmark dir with name containing a space
2. set nautilus in navigational mode by default
3. open said folder via the places menu

Actual results:
nautilus opens then closes - very unexpected behavior

Expected results:
nautilus should of course display my files

Does this happen every time?
yes sir.. 100% reproducable

Other information:
Here's the initial bug report filed with Fedora Core back in June when I first
