cannot use CTRL-C in the tree sidepane in nautilus

[Ctulhu]

In Nautilus with the tree view in the sidepane, if one wants to copy a folder into the clipboard, then

- one can right-click on the folder and choose copy; but one cannot (!?)
- press CTRL-C to copy the folder.

Why not?!?!

I am just unsure if this bug qualifies for a papercut, though.

Of course it does :-) The page describes a papercut as "a trivially
fixable usability bug that the average user would encounter in default
installation of Ubuntu or Kubuntu Desktop Edition" and I am sure that
most users will have had their mouse on a folder in the tree view and
then could not copy it using CTRL-C.

I have never seen this work, but then I only began using Ubuntu w/ version 8.04.

marking invalid for papercut job as per previous comment that this did not exist in ubuntu 8.04 so this would become a new feature so not a papercut. for more information about papercut see: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PaperCut
