Public bug reported:

Dear all,

I just encountered the following scenario:

I copied a large file in Nautilus. At one point the progress bar showed
"0 seconds left", giving me the impression that it should be done soon.
However, from this point on it took maybe another 3 minutes to finalise
the copy process.

Instead of displaying "0 seconds left", it would be more helpful for the
user if Nautilus showed something like "finalising...". This tells the
user that the process is finishing correctly and that it did not hang or
crash (I was almost about to abort the process because I thought that
this had happened).

What do you think?

Please see the attached screenshot that shows the above described
scenario.

Thankfully,

~Robert
