Public bug reported:
In Ubuntu 16.10, and the included version of Nautilus, when you right-
click a file and go to Properties, you can only seemingly pull up one
properties window PER folder, as the parent window you were just in is
frozen in time, you can't click anything in it. Essentially making this
a *major* usability issue, because now comparing two files in the same
folder is rather impossible. I'd have to open up that one folder twice
in two separate windows which is completely absurd.
