[Bug 32138] nautilus deletes files instead of doing a backspace with new fr keymap

Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed

Description:
I run Ubuntu Linux on my Powerbook with french (France) keyboard. Since
the default fr mac keymap is not good for my Powerbook, I use a modified
version and it works perfectly, I can pipe use the € (euro) sign, etc.

But the problem I get now is that when I try to rename a file in
nautilus and hit backspace nautilus deletes the file from the file
system. It does not even put it to trash! The file just disappers and I
get the following message :

"The item could not be renamed. There is no "test1.txt" in this folder.
Perhaps it was just moved or deleted?"

Please note that the file is not simply deleted because it's empty,
nautilus does the same thing with a file actually containing text in it.

I had and have the same problem under Breezy and Dapper.
