Title:
  Directory size in properties doesn't count hidden files

Status in Nautilus:
  Unknown
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: nautilus

  What happens :
  When doing right-click → Properties on a directory's icon, the «Contents» field reports an incorrect file size : hidden files are not take into account.

  This happens even if hidden files are displayed.

  This happens both as root and as non-root.

  What should happen :
  Hidden files should be included in directory size calculation. If for some bizarre reason you estimate that they shouldn't be taken into account (this violates the principle of least astonishment, but nevermind), at least they should be taken into accound when hidden files are shown.

  Steps to reproduce :
  cd /tmp
  mkdir -p a/.hidden
  dd if=/dev/urandom of=a/dataOk bs=1M count=5
  dd if=/dev/urandom of=a/.hidden/dataIgnored bs=1M count=10
  dd if=/dev/urandom of=a/.dataHiddenIgnored bs=1M count=10
  du -hs a
  # du reports 26M.
  nautilus .
  # right-click on a → properties reports 5M.
