Hi Masato,

Thanks for your report, we'll look into it!

To whomever has time to patch: please remove the dialog altogether, and add a
https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/GtkInfoBar.html to the UI (name it so
it's obvious the bar should be used for filename_errors). Then, when you do
your checks, simply show/hide it and apply pre-made strings for all the errors
you plan on displaying:

"Filename too long"
"A file already exists with this name"
"Filename contains invalid characters (e.g. /)"

We gotta go through all of them since any other error dialog would equally
steal focus and prevent the user from fixing her problem. Other problems like
"name already exists" or "Filename contains /" are fairly frequent, hence the
critical rating.
