AFAIK, it's a Nautilus bug. I've seen a bug go past on Launchpad about
this but I can't find it at the moment. You have the same problem with
Firefox for example: if you open the download window, select a file,
right-click and select "open containing folder", it will open the folder
but not select the file.
