1 File => Create Document => Empty File
2 Enter the file name "%S" or "%s"
3 click "Create" button
The Thunar window disappear quietly.  copying files seams have same problem too.

Fixed in master and the xfce-4.8 branch:

    Don't interpret file display names as format strings (bug #7128).
    
    This avoids a segmentation fault when creating files like '%s' or '%S'
    using File => Create Document => Empty File.

BTW, this fix should also fix the same issue with copying.
