My comment wasn't just about the camera issue. I'be found the same change in behavior when copying a file from Firefox to the desktop or a folder.

But, give me a suggestion then. Do I open a bug with the Firefox people or with the Gnome people or with the Ubuntu people? It just seems odd that several different applications all report the same problem, the same change of behavior at the same time as 8.04 comes out. Did they all decide not to preserve timestamps at the same time or is it something in the system? Who handles copying a file from an application window to the Desktop or a folder?

I notice that there is always a copy of Nautilus in the background and a new one will start up when the old one is killed. That prompts me to believe that, perhaps, Nautilus is overseeing the copying functions in the Gnome environment. Unfortunately, I'm running on empirical data so I can only work with what I see happening and telling me something isn't so doesn't change that.
