Description fedorabugmail 2012-09-13 16:40:12 CEST
If multiple files are selected and dragged to a new window, the 'File Operation Progress' window appears and shows the current file being copied. When a file is reached that can't be copied, such as a symbolic link, another dialog appears stating as such and asks the user for additional input. This new dialog box does not contain the filename in question and appears over the 'File Operation Progress' dilog box so the user must move it to see what file has the problem.

I'd like to suggest either adding the filename in question to the new dialog box, or updating the existing dialog box with the user actions.
