Title:
  write operations on readonly folders fail SILENTLY when done via
  keyboard shortcuts

Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Example 1
  Browse to a folder in a read/write filesystem, select some file or folder and 
hit Ctrl+C
  Then browse to a folder in a read-only filesystem, and hit Ctrl+V (paste)

  Expected: exactly the same should happen as when you drag an item from
  a folder to the other: an error message informing you that the
  operation failed, with a "details" dropdown which you can expand and
  see it was because the target folder is read-only

  Observed: nothing happens at all. Not even the error sound is played.

  
  Example 2
  Go to a read-only filesystem, select a file or folder and hit Ctrl+X (cut). 
If it was a read/write filesystem the selected item would become grey. Since it 
is readonly it can't, but:

  Expected: an error message should pop up or at the very least, the
  error sound should be played

  observed: nothing happens at all
