Public bug reported:
When you are in a group that has full rights to edit files, but you are
not the owner, the "Create File/Folder" options are greyed out in
Nautilus although they shouldn't be. Despite being greyed out, clicking
them does still work though.
Practical example: the /var/www sub-folders belong to www-data:www-data
and file permissions are set to 775. I add the regular user to that
group to be able to edit files without requiring root access. He can now
edit files and create folders, but the Nautilus buttons do not indicate
this.
