    Description

      In b77, on Solaris/Linux, run any application with JFileChooser (SwingSet2
      would do).
      Open the file dialog. Try to enter into any directory by double-clicking.
      Instead of entering the directory, its name will start to be edited instead.
      Note that this is reproducible with all look and feels, only with Motif
      L&F you just can't enter the directory (you can't edit a dir name in motif's
      file dialog).

      This is reproducible only with "Select windows when the mouse moves over them"
      option selected in Gnome's System/Preferences/Windows dialog.

      The bug was first mentioned on this thread:
        http://forums.java.net/jive/thread.jspa?messageID=97321&#97321

      Since Swing didn't integrate into b77, and I've verified that it's not
      reproducible on Swing's nightly builds prior to b77 sync with master,
      I'm filing the bug against awt.
