Description Matt Feifarek 2012-10-09 21:14:21 UTC 
If you open a folder in nautilus, one can multi-select several files... and then drag those files to another place (desktop, another window)... this is expected (and traditional) behavior.

If you then switch to list view (what happened to control-2 by the way?) one cannot do this. Select multiple files, then try and drag; selection is lost and only the file under the mouse will drag.

I'm on Ubuntu 64bit, 12.10, updated from standard repos running gnome-shell.
