In a platform application, in a module with an empty layer.xml file,
these steps create a broken link.

NOTE: also fails in 8.0.2

1 - In project window, navigate to
    module > ImportantFiles > XMLLayer > ThisLayerInContext > MenuBar > File
2 - Bring up context menu over "New Project..." node and select properties
3 - Click "..." button on "Original Name", the text property editor comes up
4 - Click "Cancel" button

Observe:
The "New Project..." node is shown as modified with a broken link
See below for changes made in the project files
