Comments
EVALUATION I thought it out and decided to fix it another way. I think it would be better to edit file name in details view with the same text field that is currently used for editing in list view mode. It would allow to mimic the Windows behaviour of resizing the edit field when typing, including expanding it over table grid for long file names.

EVALUATION The inner class DetailsTableCellEditor of FilePane should be modified for this.
