Possible bug when renaming with AsyncWB

Hi there

I think I found a small bug in OS 3.2.3 when renaming a file and AsyncWB is running. It should not be possible to enter a / or : char in the renaming textfield, but it is.
Steps to reproduce:
  • ensure that AsyncWB is running
  • select a file or drawer and call "Rename" from the "Icon" menu
  • try to enter a / character, the screen will blink and the / char has not been entered (correct behaviour)
  • press and release shift key
  • try to enter a / char once more and it will be possible (but shouldn't)
The same goes for the : char when renaming or creating a new drawer.
I couldn't reproduce this if AsyncWB was not running (different rename dialog), and not with OS 3.9 or 4.1 running AsyncWB, either, so it seems this is a bug in the current AsyncWB v47.52 that ships with OS 3.2.3.

Cheers,
Michael
