0003-Size-in-bytes-in-statusbar.patch

I have changed my mind.
I now think the colons are ok and the best and the exact size should be
included. Consider a folder with 24 files and 24 directories. The statusbar
upon entering is
48 items: 238.3 kB (238,289 bytes), Free space: 55.9GB
the statusbar after selecting everything is
24 folders selected, 24 other items selected: 238.3 kB (238,289 bytes)
and when only files are selected it is
24 items selected: 238.3 kB (238,289 bytes)
I think this is actually good enough, the user will quickly find what the
numbers say (generally speaking, the folders are left out of the count, since
they would take quite long to count).
I think your version is a bit too long.
