FTP: incorrect "back" history if connection failed

[Slavic]

A drop-down history list shows the previously visited directories, including FTP locations. We can also return to previous locations using the navigation buttons "Go back" and "Go forward", if they are placed on the toolbar. For example, we connect to FTP server, browse through remote directories and then navigate back to local disk with active connection, e.g.:

Code: Select all

C:\
C:\Documents and Settings\
ftp://username@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/
ftp://username@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/myfiles/
C:\Documents and Settings\
...

Imagine, the FTP connection is closed in the meantime. We press the button "Go back" and the FTP should be restored, but it failed for some reason (wrong password etc). However, the check pointer in the history list shows this FTP location, as if the connection was successful. Since this the buttons "Go back" and "Go forward" could operate wrong.

Why is this bug located in the confirmed bugs forum although noone ever replied?
