[Bug 1301083] Re: Drag and Drop File Auto Opens Folders
This bug just caused me to loose hundreds of old photos when I deleted a
subfolder that I had previously checked as being duplicates, but it had
somehow been filled with photos I wanted when it opened unexpectedly. I
cannot get these photos back.
Please update the number of people being effected from 11, to 11 million
since it hurts all current Ubuntu users.

Title:
Drag and Drop File Auto Opens Folders
Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
When dragging and dropping a file, if the mouse hovers over a folder
for a split second, the folder opens.
This behaviour is quite jarring. Whether or not you intended to drop
into that folder, you may not have intended to open that folder.
The hover time can't be set. And the behaviour can't be disabled.
It's a very significant usability issue for Ubuntu 13.10.
