I was about to submit this same.

Just to add mine:

SUMMARY
Say you have a folder structure with files in ext4. The folder has characters
not supported by FAT32/exFAT such as colon.
You also have another partition with FAT32/exFAT: you try to copy the whole
folder. Dolphin warns agout the unsuported characters and offers to replace.
You agree, but it fails to copy the files within.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have a source folder including a ":", with some files in it, in an ext4
partition
2. Have a destination with an FAT32/exFAT partition
3. Drag and drop the folder from the source to the destination
4. Dolphin warns you about unsupported characters and offers to replace them,
you accept
5. Dolphin creates the folder in the FAT32/exFAT partition with the unsupported
character replaced
6. Dolphin cannot copy the files within. I suspect it does not "know" that the
destintination folder now has a different name.

OBSERVED RESULT
Folder copied with unsupported characters replaced. Files within not copied,
error.
I can copy the files within the source folder to the newly created folder, so
the error only shows when trying to copy the folder all together with the
files.

EXPECTED RESULT
Folder copied with unsupported characters replaced. Files within copied.
