Example of the issue

When I copy a file or folder into another empty folder which was previously expanded, the folder is expanded automatically and I get an empty entry below this folder.

Here are the quick steps to reproduce this issue:
1) create a new empty project 'Test'
2) create two new folders 'Folder1' and 'Folder2' inside the project
3) move 'Folder2' into 'Folder1' and expand 'Folder1' afterwards
4) move 'Folder2' to the project 'Test' again, so that 'Folder1' and 'Folder2' are again both located below the project 'Test' again
5) move 'Folder2' again into 'Folder1' -> issue with empty entry occurs

Remark: this only happens under Linux, could not see this behavior under Windows

I found this ticket here which seems to be a similar issue:
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=153291 

And this is an issue also in older versions (e.g. 4.17)
