The Properties window only shows modified date. It should also show (somewhere)
the other two stored dates -- "changed" and "accessed". It should not repeat
GMC/KDE's mistake and call changed "created" though.

I only see modified and accessed date.  I don't feel comfortable verifying this
bug as currently summarized.

The so-called "changed" date is very strange -- it's the date that the file 
last had its contents modified (same as "modified" date) or that the file 
last had its file node info (permissions, owner, group) changed, 
whichever is newer. Rather than have a field for the changed date itself, I 
reflect its value on the permissions page, in the "last changed" field near 
the bottom. If the changed & modified dates are the same, this says 
"unknown". If they are different, this shows the changed date.

Thanks for the explanation.  What I didn't realize is that the "changed" field
was on a different properties tab.  I'll verify the functionality as described
in your most recent comments.

These fields work as described, which I verified by comparing the output from
the stat command.  However, I never see an "accessed" datestamp reported for
directories.

I know very little about these unix details. It's possible Nautilus is doing 
something wrong with accessed dates in directories.

Verifying this bug and forking off the missing "accessed date" for directories
to a new bug.
