--- Comment #2 from Keith Rozett <krozett at gmail.com> ---
I just wanted to chime in, because I was having the same problem Chris
described. In my case, though, is this has nothing to do with Thunar. Rather,
it was some kind of conflict between GTK widgets and IBus. When using IBus as
my input method, any GTK widget that allowed searching would miss the first
letter of the search. I guess IBus was eating it somehow. I tested this with a
simple TreeView app (http://scentric.net/tutorial/ch-treeview.html).

I'm doing further research to see if it's XFCE-specific. So far I've got a
vanilla Xubuntu install with IBus as the input method, and that's enough to
trigger the bug. I'm going to see if it happens with Ubuntu, with a
non-Ubuntu-based XFCE install, etc. Not sure how deep this rabbit hole goes...
