I have found a way to reproduce this problem without actually downloading anything.
1. I create an empty directory with nautilus. Eg: ~/torrents/
2. Start transmission and set default download location to: ~/torrents/
3. Create another empty folder inside the first: eg: ~/torrents/dontdownloadhere/
4. Start any torrent file. Eg: http://ca.isohunt.com/download/441429029/gentoo.torrent
5. 'Torrent Options' dialog appears with the 'Destination folder' set as 'dontdownloadhere'.
From there on it is very difficult to select the folder above 'dontdownloadhere'. It _wants_ to select the deepest folder.
I get the feeling this is a filesystem issue, but transmission is the only application that I'm effected by.
Perhaps I should add that I'm using ecryptfs.
