Bug Description

Binary package hint: nautilus

When I drag and drop a folder containing files from file roller into nautilus it will automatically merge the folder with an existing one and overwrite any files in the folder with the same name
(it's a merge, files with a different name remain in the folder)

I can reproduce this 100% of the times
- add af older ot an archive
- change a file in the folder
- drag and drop the folder from the archive in file roller to the parent dir of the original folder

behaviour:
- folder is merged
- changed file is overwritten

Expected behavior:
prompt for merging / replacing (or even renaming)
