I don't know about #2, but I believe that #1 & #3 are not bugs.

First, #1 works just fine here, no extra files if I don't select them

I think that #3 is just the way Konqueror works. After creating a new folder, 
Konqueror does not select it automatically. It is easy to see which folder or 
file is selected by the faint dotted outline. Hitting return enters that 
folder or opens that file, NOT the newly created directory.
