Bug Description

Opening a directory with a name longer as 50 characters in the default Ubuntu file browser
will stop the location bar from displaying all info (back icons, location, zoom).

After this fact, no matter which directory you go to (in the same file browser window) the location
bar won't show anything.

Left a file browser showing the directory with long name.
Opening this directory in new file browser at the right
shows the location bar is gone.. however the window title shows
that the directory is opened.

The right file browser will now never display any location bar, no matter
which directory is opened.

Note that the contents is displayed ok.. only this example directory is empty.
