Public bug reported:
When using nautilus to copy files to a FAT32 USB, files are stored using the
original directory order.
When read by a primitive device which does no software sorting, files are
presented in non-alphanumeric order.
E.g. When copying a list of mp3 files to a USB flash drive for playing
in a hardware device, the order looks correct, but the hardware device
plays the mp3 files in directory order (as revealed by ls -f).
Example:
ls -1fi
