Description Lars Vogel CLA 2019-09-09 08:19:17 EDT 
The folder delimited in Linux (and Mac AFAIK) is /. But the new Folder dialog only understands the Windows delimiters even if I use Linux.

Using bin/bin/bin results in three sub-folders -> correct (under Windows) 
Using bin\bin\bin results in a folder with this name -> wrong

Create folder result

I get what I would expect (see screenshot). Three folders for both variants on Windows and on Ubuntu three folders for '/' and one folder with '\'.

Not sure what I tested.
