This bug is infuriating. It makes Nautilus unusable for any task involving organizing files / folders. Time is wasted backing out of folders every time you drag and drop a file. It is even worse if you accidentally hover over the wrong folder.

This behaviour is quite jarring. Whether or not you intended to drop into that folder, you may not have intended to open that folder. The hover time can't be set. And the behaviour can't be disabled. It's a very significant usability issue for Ubuntu 13.10.
