I confirm this bug is still present till today [May, 2016]. I edited a *.txt file in leafpad over sftp in nautilus. After I saved the file in leafpad and exited, the file size became 0 bytes. It erased entire file contents upon saving! I am very disappointed, since I do not have the backup of the file.
I also think 'importance' of this bug should be set to "HIGH".
