SUMMARY

While extracting two large archives in separate panes of Dolphin with the "autodetect subfolder" service menu, Ark gets confused and mixes up the locations.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Dolphin with split panes, each pointing to a different location containing a different large archive
2. Right-click one archive, Extract > Extract archive here, autodetect subfolder. Do the same with the other one.
3. Play around with Dolphin while each archive extracts. This may not be needed.
4. Go check on each directory

OBSERVED RESULT
The first time I did this, items from the first archive somehow extracted into the subfolder Ark created for the second archive. Later I saw the opposite. The extent of "confusion" varies each time, but in all cases Ark shuffles files into the wrong directories.

EXPECTED RESULT
Each archive is extracted into a subfolder in the location of the archive file.
