Can't copy address text in Thunar, using Ctrl+C

Ctrl + C works correct if you don't do the Arrow Down key.

to me it seems that the arrow down, is correctly selecting the margherita file, which in conjunction with with the Ctrl+L (which selects the location bar) resulting in the full path of /tmp/pizzas/margherita being copied and pasted on the ctrl+c and then paste.

Without the arrow down the result is correct /tmp/pizzas/

Now whether this is a bug in the usage of Ctrl+L I cannot say..

That would be a weirdly non-standard behavior.

It's standard that copy/paste operations act on selections operated by the cursor.

Therefore if you for example select, with the mouse, "izza", and type Ctrl+C, you would expect "izza" to be copied into the copy buffer, but it isn't.

Even assuming that this crazy behavior would be appropriate, it still is inconsistent with the mouse copy operation (and this can't be argued, as it's a standard that both actions yield the same results):

- select a string (say, "izza") in the location bar, either with the mouse or the cursor
- type Ctrl+C -> you get "file:///tmp/pizzas/margherita"
- right-click with the mouse and `copy` -> you get "izza"

As of thunar (packages) version 1.6.11-1, this is fixed.

Actually, it's not fixed at all - ignore comment #4.
