You know, I really should not forget to include that every time.  I seem
to be forgetting it more and more, lol.

I am using Feisty, completely up-to-date.

There is also (and I am not sure if this would be related or a new,
different bug) one other quirk with an NFS-mounted home:  Moving files
around from one folder to another (e.g., ~/Desktop to ~/Documents) now
requires the middle-click-and-drag to be done; when you DnD files, it
copies by default instead of moving like it does with locally mounted
filesystems.

My major question is, "Why is GNOME treating the NFS any differently
than a locally mounted filesystem?"  I suppose that not doing some
things is alright—like not thumbnailing every picture or previewing
every document—but why is moving broken, and why is the document
creation feature broken?  That doesn't make sense to me.
