Title:
  cannot remove 'files' from dvd creator if user lacks write permission

Status in Nautilus:
  Invalid
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: nautilus

  when I insert a fresh dvd-R, the dvd-creator window opens and I can
  drag and drop files into that pane to burn a dvd.  so far so good, I
  burn a dvd but now I want to burn a second dvd, the previous is
  ejected and the dialog closed, a fresh dvd inserted, the dvd-creator
  opens showing the previous selected files.  Normally I can select
  those files, press Del and start on the next dvd, but if any of the
  files from the previous burn are not owned by the current user and the
  current user has only read permissions, the dvd creator refuses to
  remove the files from the list to be burned.  I can only clear the
  list by rebooting the computer!

  all remove or delete items on the menu are greyed, the Del key has no
  effect and attempts to change the permissions gives an authorization
  warning!

  I cannot keep rebooting ever time I burn a dvd; other people use this
  computer and reboots destroy their sessions.  the problem needs to be
  fixed, but there also needs to be a work-around to clear the dvd
  creator's list of candidate files to be burned.
