Title: Applying Permissions to enclosed files in Nautilus' Folder Properties window doesn't work Status in Nautilus: New Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: To reproduce, gksudo nautilus to get root permissions, find a folder with files inside. Right click the folder and choose properties, go onto the permissions tab and change the owner and group to something else, eg to ubuntu if root, or root if ubuntu. Click the 'Apply perms to enclosed files' option and then close the window. Wait a bit before closing it if you wish, but when you go into that folder and check the permissions of the files inside, they will not have changed. I noticed this when copying my firefox profile from my main partition onto my live USB of the daily build.
