Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

The bug didn't get activity/new duplicates for some years and the nautilus code saw quite some changes since which probably deprecated the issue so closing it. If it's still a problem in recent Ubuntu/nautilus version please submit a new report
