SUMMARY
In a folder containing many files, some names are numeric, for example, 01.txt, 02.txt, 03.txt, etc. When typing the file name to quickly navigate to it, in the case of file 44.txt what Dolphin does with the first press of "4" is go to 40.txt and with the second press of "4" it goes to 41.txt and not 44.txt. Each time I press the same key it only advances one file in the list of those that begin with 4*.txt and does not take the press as the second character of the file name, in this case 4"4".txt

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Dolphin
2. go to a folder containing many files, some names are numeric, for example, 01.txt, 02.txt, 03.txt, etc. 
3. go to directo to 44.txt file

OBSERVED RESULT

EXPECTED RESULT
go to 41.txt instead
