I'm getting conflicting responses from you guys. Yes, it's reproducible. All you have to do is have two Ubuntu machines on the same network and copy files from one machine to another. When the files arrive at the destination machine, the user on the target machine has no rights and no way to claim those files. You either have to sudo nautilus and change the file permissions one at a time, or open up a terminal and change the file permissions. That's fine for you and I, but stumps less sophisticated users.
When you copy files to or from a Windows machine, the user doesn't encounter that problem. Only happens when the files are copied from one Ubuntu machine to another.
