When clicking on the "Apply permissions to enclosed files" button in the "Permissions" tab of the "Properties" dialog for a directory, the permissions set in any of the "File access" drop-down boxes are set correctly on the enclosed files but no feedback is given to the user that the action has been taken and all "File access" drop-down boxes revert to "---".

See the bug reported in Unbuntu Launchpad for further details: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/503315

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open Nautilus and navigate to a directory that contains enclosed files.
2. Check the permissions of any enclosed file.
3. Right click on the directory and open the Properties dialog box.
4. Click on the "Permissions" tab.
5. Change the value of any of the three "File access" drop-down boxes.
6. Click on "Apply permissions to enclosed files"
7. Check that the permissions on the enclosed files have been changed accordingly

Actual behaviour
In step 6, all "File access" drop-downs revert to "---" which makes it difficult for the user to tell whether permissions for enclosed files have been changed or not.

Expected behaviour
In step 6, Nautilus should notify the user that the permissions have been changed. One way to do it could be to change the value of the "File access" drop-down or to print a message next to it.
