Sync issues with renamed folders

Problem occurs when a folder that is synced is renamed. I am doing a mirror sync. So let's say that in the source location a folder is renamed from "Taxes" to "Taxes and Receipts." When I go to do a sync it stil shows the name of the source folder on the left column in FFS as "Taxes." not "Taxes and Receipts," and of course after sync the folder is listed in the target location as "Taxes." not "Taxes and Receipts."

I have a hunch that the folder was not really renamed at the file system level, but only at the Windows shell level.
In other words, you have a desktop.ini file that contains the display name, while the "real" folder name remained unchanged.
