Title:
  Applying Permissions to enclosed files in Nautilus' Folder Properties
  window doesn't work

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

Bug description:
  To reproduce, gksudo nautilus to get root permissions, find a folder
  with files inside. Right click the folder and choose properties, go
  onto the permissions tab and change the owner and group to something
  else, eg to ubuntu if root, or root if ubuntu. Click the 'Apply perms
  to enclosed files' option and then close the window. Wait a bit before
  closing it if you wish, but when you go into that folder and check the
  permissions of the files inside, they will not have changed.

  I noticed this when copying my firefox profile from my main partition
  onto my live USB of the daily build.
