Bug Description

One feature users asked me for quite a few times when I was doing the properties dialog mockups was the ability to rename an item from the dialog.

I solved this by changing the title into a text entry field

Good luck with that!

@Daniel Fore: when should the rename happen? On focus leaving the text entry? On pressing enter? On closing the window? Should this be an instant-apply rename?
