Public bug reported:

On intrepid, there is a "File Operations" dialogue for each longer copy
or move operation. That dialogue is not resizable. Depending on the
estimated duration, its size jitters. See Screenshot. Probably upstream
prob.

It is similar to the other bug I reported that the remaining download
time during dist-upgrade from hardy to intrepid and from feisty to hardy
could not be read in languages hitting long words in localisation

Suggested fix: make "File Operations" resizable via "grabbing" the
corners/edges.

GREEN: Sometimes it makes a newline, sometimes not, so the box resizes
itself

RED: No handles to rescale (like XP :-((( )

OFFtopic: one dual-core core of AMD x2 4400+ can handle approx 10 MB/s
via SSH to Raid 5 array, the whole onboard 1:1 gigabit ethernet maxes to
about 25 MB/s. When I copy the 4x1GB files all together, one single-
threaded process gives 10 MB/s, sequential copying file after file.
Thus, 2 files seperately start 2 threads -> 20 MB/s. Why not autodetect
the number of processes that give the highest I/O ? Or something similar
to the "background copy" option found in "Total Commander" or "WinScp"
on the Redmond OS?
