Bug Description
If you attempt to use Nautilus to drag and drop a file from a remote host to a
local folder (I was using the desktop), it gives the following error:
Error "Generic error" while copying "sftp://[blah blah blah].
Would you like to continue?
This error message is uninformative -- it's actually a permissions problem. The
dialog would be more useful if it could explain the error: "Permission denied
reading sftp://[blah blah blah]" or whatever.
