The file operations dialog should display the number of files remaining in the copy queue for a given operation
Actual behaviour
If some files are skipped, they are not subtracted from the count displayed in the file operations dialog.
Steps to reproduce the behaviour
Move or copy a large number of files from one folder into another where some identically named files are present. When it asks the user whether to replace or skip files, choose skip and mark "apply this action to all files and folders." It may be most visible if a large number of folders are being merged with several differences between the versions, but this is not strictly necessary to reproduce the issue.
I too have noticed this, I'm pretty sure it was also the case with Nemo when this code was ported over from it. Not sure if Nemo ever fixed that, if they did it would offer a usable fix.
