Regression
Yes
Cannot rename objects in the scene when certain UI configuration is set
To reproduce:
1. Open attached Unity project "Starship.zip"
2. Open "title scene 4" scene
4. Try to rename any object in the scene
Result: can't rename any object in the scene
Note: Disabling both Vertical Layout Group in the "Layout" GameObject and Canvas in "Canvas" GameObject makes it possible to rename objects (see attached gif "allowrenaming.gif")
Note: To disable renaming again, only the Vertical Layout Group in the "Layout" GameObject needs to be enabled, enabling Canvas in "Canvas" GameObject does not have any impact (see attached gif "disableagain.gif")
Workaround: Disabling all the GameObjects in the parent Gameobject "Layout" and then enabling them all again fixes the issue.

Just ran into this in 2017.2.0f3. Suddenly lost the ability to rename a game object in the hierarchy. Hitting F2 would momentarily show the go's name as editable but then it would immediately flip back like I had pressed enter. It did seem to go away after I modified a script and it recompiled.

Same here, but I think I find a solution:
In the scene tab toggle off flares (http://mintarcade.com/images/2017-11-11.png)
Disabling Canvas also do the trick (but it is useless if working on UI :)

I'm guessing this might be a duplicate, or related to https://issuetracker.unity3d.com/issues/unavailable-to-rename-gameobjects-after-setting-content-size-fitter-to-min-slash-preferred-size

Started happening as soon as I upgraded from 2017.1 (I think 2017.1.1f1?) to 2017.2.0f3.
Inspector still works, Hierarchy does not. Disabling the Canvas fixes it.

I'm getting this in 2017.2.0f3. I can't rename any items in the Hierarchy. I can rename them in the Inspector. Only happens if a Vertical Layout group is active. Happens for any objects in the scene regardless of their relationship to the Vertical Layout Group.
