I want to paste some files into a folder...  (it is the root of the tree as I currently view it, I am in /home/user/Documents)

There is no ./
I cannot be certain where I am pasting.

I don't know if I am pasting into one of the folders that are open, or the root folder...   or if it is going into some other folder (If say I have / as the root of the tree, and accidentally click paste into /home/user/Downloads instead while it is also expanded.)



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. in expandable folders mode (I refuse to call it details mode, these need to be separate)
2. double click on a folder
3. copy something from another dolphin window
4 go back to the first dolphin window,
5, where is the paste going?  will it go into the selected folder? or will it go into the root... or did I forget to double click, and am pasting somewhere else entirely.


This may be exasperated by a small screen, where I cannot see the other directories.(it scrolls up and down...)  
I always run in double click mode, as should everyone.
Possible Solution:

Actual Results:  
confusion...   and a need to verify where the files were pasted.

Expected Results:  
possible fixes:
The far left column (with the + and - for expanding folders)  would be a great place to show a folder icon, and include another row saying  /home/user/Documents  <i>(Current Folder)</i>

I believe the selected files should be deselected if I am performing a paste action... It should happen in some way that indicates I am not overwriting those selected files.

As soon as I right click, the selection colors should mute, and the object that I am communicating with should become highlighted.  (the folder in which my right click menu is active upon.. so I can choose to paste or whatnot)



This requires two levels of file highlighting... one to indication action, and one to indicate selection.
This is much needed, but perhaps a major change, but I think we can do it elegantly, and it will greatly enhance the feel of Dolphin.


It is a bug... not an enhansement.. I may not have the best solution in mind, but the problem needs to be solved.
