Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.6.0)

the builtin copy dialog of dolphin does not warn about it beeing impossible to perform the request. maybe there could be a warning in future releases.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
mount vfat-formatted partition, try to copa a file larger than 4GB tp this partition.

Actual Results:  
copying stops with an error after 4GB at file size limit of vfat

Expected Results:  
i would like dolphin to warn before start copying

OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.37-ARCH
Compiler: gcc
