--- Comment #12 from dft <dieseltrike at gmail.com> ---
I would like to bring this up again and keep it simple with another use case.
You have a folder of 500GB and want to copy to a drive that has 480GB free.
Destination is ZFS  or BTRFS with compression means it should EASILY be able to
handle it 500GB data. This is why I think going ahead it's even more important
for Dolphin to have an option to check if sufficient space is available or not.
Without this option it means Dolphin can not be used at all as a FM with
"modern" filesystems. Instead I have to open DC. It should have the option to
"copy anyway" even if Dolphin "thinks" there's not enough free space.
