** Description changed: This is more a usability issue than a technical bug, despite very annoying. Situation: - I want to share sensible information with others and use a USB thumb drive for that. I plug-in the USB drive and double-click the file in nautilus to view its contents in gedit. I view the file and do not make any changes to it. I close gedit and remove the USB drive. + I want to share sensible information with others and use a USB thumb drive for that. + The files on the thumb drive are GPG-encrypted. I plug-in the USB drive and double-click an encrypted text file in nautilus to view its contents in gedit. I view the file and do not make any changes to it. I close gedit and unplug the USB drive. What I expected to happen: Since I did not make any changes to the text file, I expect the USB drive to be unchanged in any way. What happens: - Before launching gedit, seahorse-nautilius decrypts the file and deletes the original, encrypted file without further inquiry. After closing gedit the status is not repaired, i.e. the unencrypted file is left behind on the USB drive. + Before launching gedit, seahorse-nautilius decrypts the file, stores the plaintext file in the same directory as the encrypted, original file and deletes the original, encrypted file without further inquiry. After closing gedit the status is not repaired, i.e. the unencrypted file is left behind on the USB drive. I think that the default action in this case should not be a persistent change of the original file. Think of an archive file and file-roller. The default action there is to open the archive for reading, not decompressing it and deleting the archive file. - Some info about my setup: $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS Release: 12.04 gnupg 1.4.11-3ubuntu2.1 libnautilus-extension1a 1:3.4.2-0ubuntu4 nautilus 1:3.4.2-0ubuntu4 nautilus-actions 3.1.4-1build1 nautilus-data 1:3.4.2-0ubuntu4 seahorse 3.2.2-0ubuntu2 seahorse-daemon 3.2.2-1 seahorse-nautilus 3.3.1-0ubuntu1 GNOME
