Title:
  File properties information no longer expands to fit dialog.

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

Bug description:
  right-click > Properties

  In previous versions, the "Name:", "Location:", etc. fields would
  expand to fit the window width.

  Now, they are always truncated to about 50% of the dialog's default
  width. See attached screen-shot.

  This is a horrible usability problem and makes the Search (Ctrl-F)
  feature almost useless - I cannot track down the file's location.

  Either having the ability to see the full Location in the dialog or
  the search results having an "open containing folder" context-menu
  option would resolve this issue.
