QVCS/QVCS-Pro Rename bug

Several users have reported a problem where navigation updates to the Revision Info pane (and the File Info, and Revision Detail pane also) stop. I had never been able to duplicate the bug, so it didn't get fixed. Well, now a user (thanks Phil K.!) has tracked the problem down to rename attempts. As it turns out, any kind of rename will cause the update lockup. The simplest workaround is to exit QWin and restart. The rename function works as expected, it just has the unintended side effect of locking out updates to the detail panes at the bottom right of the screen. Oops. I've already fixed the code, and will publish a 3.10.8 release at the end of the month.
