Summary: Dolphin skips copying/moving some items from /dev

SUMMARY
Hi,
for testing purposes, I often need to copy/move already configured servers to
local subdirs, and for convenience, I use Dolphin. However, when the process
processes files on /dev, I have to skip the files deemed problematic if I want
to complete the operation. Subsequently, I have to complete the copy/move
manually from Konsole for the unprocessed files.
The problematic files for Dolphin are as follows:
/dev
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 5 11 nov 20.54 zero
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 3 11 nov 20.54 null
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 8 11 nov 20.54 random
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 7 11 nov 20.54 full
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 1, 9 11 nov 20.54 urandom
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 5, 0 11 nov 20.54 tty
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 5, 1 11 nov 20.54 console
crw-rw-rw- 1 root root 5, 2 11 nov 20.54 ptmx
In my opinion, Dolphin should treat these files like any other instead of
forcing them to be omitted and requiring the user to complete the operation
manually.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Download any Linux server, for example:
$ debootstrap trixie trixie-dir http://deb.debian.org/debian
2. Access, set password and exit, for example:
$ systemd-nspawn -D debian12-server passwd root
3. Copy or move with Dolphin the subdir which contains the server (in this case
"./debian12-server") to another storage
OBSERVED RESULT
Dolphin asks to skip some files in /dev (the ones listed above).
EXPECTED RESULT
that all files are moved or copied (similar to the bash/cp command).
