Title:
  Right-click in sidebar tree view does not highlight selected folder

Status in Nautilus:
  Fix Released
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: nautilus

  Right-click a folder in the tree view on the left (other than the
  current selection), to open a context menu. The folder you clicked is
  not highlighted in any way. Since this is what one would expect, one
  might think that the context menu refers to the already selected
  folder, or that it only works properly if you left-click first (that's
  what I thought until today).

  Steps to reproduce:
  1. Expand the file system in the tree view on the left
  2. Select folder "bin" with a left click
  3. Right-click another folder, e.g. boot or etc.
  4. Notice that apart from the context menu's position, there's no indication which folder it refers to.

  What I expected to happen: The selected object should be highlighted
  while the context menu is open - of course without changing the folder
  selection. In Windows Explorer, the selection indicator is temporarily
  moved to the right-clicked folder, and moved back when the context
  menu closes. Another solution would be an additional selection until
  the context menu is closed.

  Ubuntu 9.04
  Nautilus 2.26.2
