Bug Description

Hello,

I'm a new user of the Ubuntu One service, and I would like to report a minor (but very disappointing) issue in the U1 web portal.

The issue:
While copying and entire directory tree containing files on its leaves, the uploader update the "Modified date" information only after creating the directory itself; I mean: not when modifying subdirectory, nor when inserting files in leaves.

Expected behaviour:
I think the interface should provide information without demanding the user thinking about it. That is a key point fir users to trust the service. It seems logical for me that when a directory sees the content of one of its subdirectories modified, the "Last Modified Date" of this directory should be updated too, in order to provide up-to-date information in the whole directory structure.

Thank you by advance to consider that point.

Kind regards

M. MAUNY Patrice
