Bug Description

To reproduce:
copy folder with several files to a new location (e.g. "~/ubuntu/videos/Fav" to
"~/Desktop")

Deviation: File operation window shows confusing information;
First line , the file count is a count *down*
while second line , size information count *increases*.

Expected: information during copy process is same order in both the lines.

It would be ideal if , the dialogue was:

upper sentence: Copying File 21 of 24 files (in "Fav") to "Desktop"
lower sentence: 2.1GB of 3.0 GB - 2 minutes left (24.6 Mb/s)

Now in both lines the count *increases* .

Or:

upper sentence: Copying files from "Fav" to "Desktop" (21 out of 24 left, now
copying "episode 3.avi")
lower sentence: 2.1 out of 3.0 GB left to transfer - 2 minutes (24.6 Mb/s)

Now in both lines the count decreases.
