Binary package hint: rhythmbox

With the addition of the music store I now have two library locations in Rhythmbox:-

file:///home/alan/Music
file:///.local/share/ubuntuone/Purchased%20from%20Ubuntu%20One

This is fine, all works as expected. However I am limited initially to 2GB in the second location due to it being a cloud storage location. There are reasons why I might not want to upgrade to a higher storage capacity:-

* I choose not to pay the additional fees
* I don't want to fill up to 50GB of space with music because some of my devices have low disk specifications (netbook with only 16GB disk for example)

So assuming those are valid reasons for wanting to move files out of the clouded library and into the local one, i should be able to do that within RB itself. Indeed I can highlight a track inside my clouded storage and drag it (holding shift to move, or not holding shift to copy) to my main Music folder. - See attached screencast.

This doesn't work though. The music doesn't get copied or moved, indeed when I do the drag the music just snaps back to its original location.

This will be quite painful for new users given the storage location for U1MS is a hidden folder.
