It sounds like the file manager doesn't refresh its list
of files in the current directory after your rename.

What if you force a refresh.  Say leave the FM and reenter.
Or switch to several directories and return to the one
containing "bar".  Or create another file/directory.
Gee, I wonder if you could get two "bar" files by
creating another one while the FM doesn't acknowledge
the first one.
