Bug Description

Binary package hint: nautilus

When copying or moving files Nautilus doesn't show file information like date or size if it asks to overwrite or skip a file, it's impossible to decide without that information.

This version of Nautilus asks "a filed named ... already exists. do you want to replace it?", when it could perfectly show a little more than the existence of a file with the same name.

Note that this bug report is just about Nautilus not showing *information* in the dialogue windows that asks whether to replace a file. It is not the same as launchpad bug 263338, that concerns more sophisticated issues.
