Still seeing this on 12.10 and 12.04.

This is very annoying, I just tried copying a 800MB ISO file to my
Cruzer Fit 16GB USB stick. It does like 10MB/s max and despite that
Nautilus indicated average transfer speed ~40MB/s, the progress bar went
up to 99% in a couple of seconds and then just stalled while waiting for
the buffer to be written. This is wrong and misleading at best. Having a
progress indicator that behaves like this is just pointless IMO. Any
fixes, guys?
