Race condition when manually saving after renaming files: updating file name takes too long #518

Description

If two users (or a single user with a session open in two browsers) have the same new file open and one user renames it, there is 5-10 seconds delay before the file name is updated for the second user.

If the second user saves the file, in that period there will be two files on disk!
