Title:
  hidden file copied with click+drag is not shown despite "show hidden
  files" setting

Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Steps to reproduce:

  - navigate to a folder that contains at least a hidden file (file whose name 
starts with a ".")
  - be sure to enable the "show hidden files" option in the View menu
  - hold the Ctrl key pressed
  - click on a hidden file and drag it into another place in the same folder
  - release the mouse button and the ctrl key

  Expected: the copied file should be shown, since the "show hidden
  files" option is enabled.

  Observed: the file is copied but the copy is not visible, so the user
  has the impression that the file isn't copied at all. Moreover, even
  if you collapse and re-expand the folder (i'm in list view) the folder
  is not refreshed and you still won't see the copies. I'm not sure what
  action exactly is required in order to have the folder view be
  refreshed and finally show the copied hidden files: i ended up closing
  nautilus (convinced the file hadn't been copied) then I reopened it, I
  enabled the "show hidden files" again and there they were.

  This is just one of many issue in Nautilus when handling hidden files.
