Hi

Baron, I have tried to recreate the bug above as you described.
On my computer all works as it should.
I tried twice.
However, 'I do' believe what you say as I have seen behavior like that, 
also in other distros.(( but << mostly and plentyful>> in kde4.))

Try to recreate the behavior of the bug on another place, say 
/mnt/partition/folder, w.o.w "not" in /home
