Steps to reproduce:
  • open composer
  • open media library popup
  • select sub-folder
  • try to create a new folder
  • you get a second folder-tree
It even doesn't help to go back to main-folder. Window has to be closed and reopened.

onli can reproduce this behaviour in 1.7 and 2.0

Yes, i have that too. To prevent this behaviour happen, select subfolder, but then do not click "new", elsewise click "Manage directories" and in the mainframe "create directories".

We could hack around this quickly having the "new" button only appear in uploads root directory...

I know. And i hate this behaviour ;) My folder-list is very long and the button is only at the bottom of the page :(

I think, this doesn't solve the problem, because the bug is still there if you go to a sub-folder and back to root.

Maybe this is something better be addressed in the 2.0 rewrite, I think several things work differently there already...
