bizarre problem in visual studio code with renaming a file (F2) - goes out of edit mode

When I highlight a file and hit F2, the file is normally replaced with an edit box where you can rename it.

After a few seconds, the edit box goes away and you need to quickly type the different file name (every time). I'm not sure what could cause this - any idea?

I'm on Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS, Visual Studio code 1.52.1 Thanks

This looks like a bug reported in a few issues since v1.52 that all point to this one:

https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/111652

also https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/112555 and https://github.com/microsoft/vscode/issues/112438

It is reported in 111652 as fixed in the Insiders' Build. Can you test it there? I can't reproduce in Stable Build, W10.
