note that this list is actually for development-related questions. For
bugs and support requests, there are bugs.kde.org and the KDE forum.

But anyway, the entire copy/move process is not handled by Dolphin,
but by KIO and the kioslaves. The problem you describe looks like

According to the comments, the issue was fixed for sftp at some point,
but reappeard.
