Description:
Thunar File Manager quits entire copy operation if a single file becomes missing halfway through, instead of skipping the missing file and finishing the rest of the copy operation.

Additional info:
Latest Thunar with XFCE running on latest Arch

Steps to reproduce:
-Copy /Home directory to another location such as an external drive
-Delete a small file which is part of the copy. This sometimes happens automatically if you change some settings or browse on a web browser.
-When the copy operation gets to the missing file it will cease and not allow the operation to continue, instead of skipping the missing file and continuing.
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Upstream
Additional comments about closing:  If you think Thunar should handle such situations differently, you'll need to discuss it with upstream developers on the Xfce bug tracker.

Typo at the end of title sorry.

Not sure what we can do about this (it's not a packaging issue as far as I can tell); you'll need to report it upstream. :)
