> 1. Run nano, on a file or a new buffer
> 2. Press ^R
> 3. Enter the name of a directory, such as /foo
> 4. Error is displayed "/foo is a directory" but a new buffer is opened 
> for it anyway.
>
> I would expect instead to show the "is a directory" error in the current
> buffer and not open a new one at all.

> 5. If you don't notice that a new buffer was opened, you may hit ^R 
> again and try another path- then later after saving nano says "switched 
> back to /foo" and you might not have a clue what is going on.
