Public bug reported:

Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
1. Open nautilus
2. Go to a directory where the user only has read access, not write access (e.g. /usr/share/example-content)
3. Try and drag and drop a file onto the desktop

Expected Result: Nautilus copies the file only the desktop
Actual Result: Nautilus tries to move the file, and returns an error about permissions
