Default "New Folder" behavior in Java

« Bubb Rubb | Main | TextAmerica $500 Check Arrived »
It's been my recent experience in client-side Java that with programs using a directory/file browser control, for example, JFileChooser, the "New Folder" button does in fact create a new folder called "New Folder". And that's all well and good. It's just that after the new folder is created, you have to delicately select (single click and hover usually does it) the new folder called "New Folder" so that you can change its name from "New Folder". Very rarely, as in never, do I want to create a new folder called "New Folder".

I'd just like it so that the default behavior when selecting the "New Folder" button is to have already selected the name "New Folder" for you to change the name.

Minor nit.
