Bug Description

It appears as though the client is not properly determining the nesting of folders when determining whether to display the "Synchronize folder" option in Nautilus. I do not know if this same problem exists beyond the UI.

To see this problem,
1. Create a folder ~/Ubuntu One Music
2. The Synchronize folder option will be greyed out.
3. Rename the folder ~/UbuntuOne Music, and the option is available again.

Confirmed. If a folder name in ~ begins with "Ubuntu One" then it shows "Share..." and not "Synchronize".

If it's renamed so it doesn't match that, it shows "Synchronize" and not "Share" (correct behaviour).

This doesn't actually occur on 1.4.x so set to Invalid for that series.

I just confirmed on Maverick that this happens in 1.5.4+r867~maverick1
I'm pretty sure it happened in 1.4 as well.

John, I'll re-check on Maverick, just in case.

John, verified, not happening on 1.4. The nautilus plugin was very different on that branch.

It doesn't occur in 1.4 (which is packaged in Ubuntu Maverick). The nightlies is a different matter, and is our PPA, not Ubuntu. I verified the code in stable-1-4 yesterday, and this issue doesn't affect the code there (it is a bit different). The code on stable-1-4 appends a slash for comparing.
