TBeholder, thanks for the follow up. The way I was going about it was
not an apples-to-apples test of what was originally reported against in
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/95854/comments/4
. I think the edited Bug Description will make it clear to all the scope
of the issue.
Thank you for your understanding.

3) What is expected to happen is when one executes the following in a
terminal:
cd ~/Desktop
mkdir test
cd
touch test
then uses Nautilus to copy the file test to the Desktop, it does not allow
this, just like it won't when using cp in a terminal:
cp test Desktop/
sudo cp test Desktop/
cp: cannot overwrite directory ‘Desktop/test’ with non-directory
or if one was using Windows.
4) What happens instead is one gets a prompt noting:
File Conflict
Replace folder "test"?
A folder with the same name already exists on "desktop".
Replacing it will remove all files in the folder.
Select a new name for the destination
Apply this action to all files
Cancel Skip Replace
and if one accidentally hit the button Replace, the folder with all of
its contents are permanently deleted, and replaced with the file.
