Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nautilus

When pasting files into a directory then, should a file of the same name
already exist, the user is prompted with a dialogue stating "A File
named "$FILE_NAME" already exists.  Do you want to replace it ?".

Sadly there is no information displayed for either the source or
destination file.  The user is therefore unable to decide whether to
replace the file or not until they have manually inspected both source
and destination file size, date last modified etc.

The replace file dialogue should therefore be modified to show
sufficient file information to assist the user.  This should, at a
minimum, include the file size and "date last modified" of both source
and destination files.
