[Bug 1518742] [NEW] Used space and item count of folder in Properties doesn't take into account hidden files!

 

Public bug reported:

Steps to reproduce:
- right-click on a folder and select Properties
- look at "Contents" (wait until it is finished computing the totals)

Expected: the total number of items and disk usage should correspond to
the real number of items and the real disk usage

Observed: it only takes into account non-hidden folders and files, which
renders it useless.

This is so ridiculous.
