I confirm that the bug affects nemo, too -- so presumably the root cause
is not in nautilus. I am hit by the bug right after upgrading to 14.04
from 13.10.

I can reproduce the error with the following scenario:

start nemo
press shift-ctrl-n to create a folder. A new folder with 'Untitled Folder' created, the name is selected.
press shift-ctrl again. The order is important -- shift before, ctrl after. The selection goes away, and now the folder 'Untitled Folder' itself is selected.
after that, you cannot cut or copy -- neither with kbd shortcut, neither with menu items. As nemo visually gives feedback upon cutting a file, I can see that the cut action is not performed.

I hope this helps.

nemo 2.0.8
