Bug Description
System: Ubuntu 11.10 with both gnome desktop and xfce desktop installed, fully updated
Start the system as Xubuntu, with the xfce desktop
When I click a file in the Thunar file browser, then press and hold the control (ctrl) key and drag the file, Thunar fails to make a copy of the file.
As a work-around, Copy + Paste the file does work, but this is registered by the clipboard and destroys any other workflow which depends on the information held by the clipboard.

Its not possible to copy files using drag and drop (holding Ctrl) within a folder, copying using Ctr+C, Ctrl+V is ok though so i dont see any reason do not be able to do this using drag and drop.
