This seems to indicate a Dolphin specific problem, at least under Ubuntu.
Nautilus does not provide the split window option, as Dolphin does. 
Thus I place this in Normal since having to use the workaround "Nautilus" is a real "Time Killer," as Nautilus starts a move or copy at the "copy from" directory instead of the last "Copy Destination" most of the time. 

Any effort that does not jeopardize work on more important bugs, would be appreciated.

I will gladly answer any questions, and perform any procedures requested.
