Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce:

- navigate to a folder that contains at least a hidden file (file whose name 
starts with a ".")
- be sure to enable the "show hidden files" option in the View menu
- hold the Ctrl key pressed
- click on a hidden file and drag it into another place in the same folder
- release the mouse button and the ctrl key

Expected: the file should be copied, as happens with non-hidden files

Observed: nothing happens


This is just one of many issue in Nautilus when handling hidden files.
