            Bug ID: 12577
           Summary: Serialize operations when copying from/to the same
                    device.
    Classification: Xfce
           Product: Thunar
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Medium
         Component: core
          Assignee: xfce-bugs at xfce.org
          Reporter: lvella at gmail.com
        QA Contact: nick at xfce.org
                CC: benny at xfce.org, hjudt at xfce.org
  Target Milestone: 1.8.0

When I want to copy multiple files to the USB stick, I browse the folders, and
drag-and-drop it into the USB device. But if I do it multiple times, all copy
operations are carried out in parallel, which is suboptimal if all the copy
operations are from the same device or targeting the same device.

This is feature request I miss in many file managers: it would be nice that at
most one copy operation would be carried for each block device involved, so if
I have stacked many copies from HD1 to USB1, they would be carried in serial.
But if I have stacked another from USB2 to HD2, that one should be carried in
parallel (as currently done).
