I believe this issue still exists  today in a fully updated 13.10.

nautilus --version
GNOME nautilus 3.8.2

unity --version
unity 7.1.2

The copy progress window seldom or never appears on my install neither
on the desktop nor in alt-tab super-1. Not on any of the four virtual
desktop spaces either. The right-click show copy window (or whatever it
says on English-language installs) does not do anything. This has on
several occasions made me think the copying was finished so I deleted
the source files and only found out about my misstake after being
greeted with the "error while copying" dialog window when the file that
is apparently being copied has been removed.

Interestingly enough the side-bar seems to appear and shake the file
manager icon when the copying has finished, not sure how useful that is
on its own though, and I don't know if that notification stays on screen
if I am AFK or just looking away for a moment.

Also copying seems to be very taxing on my computer -(i7 CPU with
samsung 530 SSD) the UI becomes somewhat unresponsive while copying
large files to backup USB-disks. This could possibly affect the main
issue of the progress window not being displayed.
