Title:
  ListView - Context-menu options missing when pointer is above
  files/folders

Status in One Hundred Paper Cuts:
  Confirmed
Status in Nautilus:
  Fix Released
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  What I did:

  - Nautilus is configured to show listview, and the directory-tree on the left ( just checked, symbolview has the same issue )
  - right-click on a file/folder and clicking on copy
  - change to the folder where the file/foldershould be copied to
  - rightclick anywhere in the listview of the contents of that folder

  What happened:

  - When rightclicking on a folder, there is the option to insert into that folder ( which is nice ) and cut and copy - no paste
  - When rightclicking on a file the only options are cut and copy - no paste
  - When actually rightclicking on the actual folder from the tree-view, paste into that folder exists, but is inactive (!!!) - so no workaround available

  What I expected:

  a past option that pasts the "files/folders" I've "copied" before into the folder at whichs contents I'm looking.
  and a paste into that folder option in the treeview

  What I found out :

  when there are very few files/folders in a folder, and the list is
  shorter than the nautilus window could show - the whitespace below the
  list has this option. This should simply be added to the files and
  folders.

  P.S: please do not remove paste into that folder - its nice actually,
  but not all I expected...
