Renaming files in Xcode project window

Has anybody else noticed that sometimes it appears that Xcode 3.0 is deliberately trying to make it all but impossible to rename a file?

I click on the file name in the project window, it becomes an editable selection, the entire file name is selected, and I start typing. And if I ever slow down and pause more than like a 1/10th of a second between keystrokes, it decides "hey, you're done". It renames the file whatever has been types, and then goes back to becoming an editable selection _selecting the entire file name_ again.

So if you want to name a file "abc" you might end up with "abc" if you type really fast, "a" and then "bc" or even "a" and then "b" and then "c".

I can select the file and click the "info" toolbar button and edit it from there, but I'm use to renaming in the project window. Even worse, there's no way to rename a build phase via the "info" panel - you've got to use the project window (and probably resort to making a new empty file, type in the name, copy, and paste)
