Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make

Title:
  Used space and item count of folder in Properties doesn't take into
  account hidden files!

Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  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.
