Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

Hi,

got an idea for nautilus (and any other file explorer basically)

first, i'll say that i really like the single window for multiple file
operations.

but, it still displays popups during copying for 
errors/warnings/user-descisions-needed.
copy is stalled then.

instead, could you please:
- keep copying files that dont require userinteraction.
- list all errs / warnings / etc in a (user-visible) interactive log. have a 
setting in config for auto-show-or-not of log.
- during, or at the end of copying, check the log, and resolve the 
errs/warnings/etc. pref not by a gauntlet of dialogs, but by showing the log, 
some colors, and a right-side panel to select the action (which starts 
immediately, counter/progressbar in colored log entry plz)

I believe this would be a great improvement for nautilus; end-users, if
you agree, comment "+1" plz.

On a side-note; it would also be cool if nautilus took into acount the various 
filesystems being copied from and to.
One set of write-operations per file-system please, that would result in faster 
copying i think.
