Public bug reported:

When I right click a folder in GNOME nautilus 2.26.2 an select "sharing
options" there is always the same display "nothing is shared, nothing is
selected" even if a folder is already shared.

Example: I have a shared folder "bilder" which was shared by using
"sharing options" in nautilus just a minute before (see below), but when
opening "sharing options" on that same folder again, it looks as if the
default setting are valid (nothing is checked, nothing shared). So that
means I have not only no feedback about the sharing status of a folder -
I even can't unselect or unshare the folder by using nautilus alone. Is
this a bug or a feature? The tiny tag on the icon of a shared folder,
which shows the sharing status, is removed after reboot of the machine
but the folder is still shared.

I expect that the visual feedback about the sharing status in nautilus
represents the current status of the sharing properties of a folder, but
this is not the case.
