Steps:

1. Launch Brackets.
2. New a folder in Brackets and right click on the folder.In this case, folder name is untitled.
3. Click Show in OS and delete this folder from OS.
4. Back to Brackets and click on the deleted folder to pop up an error dialog.
5. New a folder with same name and then new a file under this new folder.
6. Then right click on the deleted folder to do some operation, like: Show in OS, Rename, Delete etc.

Result:
The deleted folder still work well, but all the operations will redirect to the new folder which has same name with it.

Expected:
When click on the deleted folder, it should pop up an error dialog and can not do any operation on it. Or it should not allowed new a folder with the same name.

ENV: Win7 x64 ENU
Build: 0.27.0.8255

This will be fixed when the file watcher user story is complete. Marking "move to backlog" and closing.

Note: I believe this isn't folder-specific -- the same thing should happen with filenames too.

Workaround is to right-click the tree and choose "Refresh" after step 3/4.
