Title:
  nautilus file browser windows never show backup files

Status in Nautilus:
  Confirmed
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Overview description:
  ---------------------
  (This is on Hoary, fresh install, no updates yet.)

  In file browser windows, it is possible to display hidden files (with Ctrl+h,
  for example), but backup files (ending with a tilde ~) are never shown. In 
file
  object windows, Ctrl+h toggles the display of both hidden files and backup 
files.

  Steps to reproduce:
  -------------------
  1. Disable spatial mode, as described in the Ubuntu FAQ at
  
<URL:http://www.ubuntulinux.org/support/documentation/faq/helpcenterfaq.2004-10-07.0184507726>.

  2. View a directory that contains both hidden files and backup files.

  3. Toggle the display of hidden/backup files with either

  - Ctrl+h

  or

  - System -> Preferences -> File Management
    [+] Show hidden and backup files

  or

  - Applications -> System Tools -> Configuration Editor
    [+] /desktop/gnome/file_views/show_backup_files

  Actual results:
  ---------------
  None of these three methods shows backup files in browser windows, but the 
first
  and second one show hidden files.

  Expected results:
  -----------------
  All three methods should make backup files visible.

  4. Now, go to the File Management Preferences, Tab `Behaviour' and
  deselect `Always open in browser windows'. Now there are backup files!
  But I want to see them in browser windows...
