When you want to cut or copy a file from one window to another window you have to refresh the second window before pasting. I believe this was fixed in the latest versions of the 2.2 series.
No, its not fixed in any nautilus. At the core its an X issue, but we could work around it a bit better. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 90107 ***
