Compute totals OFF: wrong count of file processed in copy dialog

The number of files processed might be wrong if the "compute totals" otion is DISabled.

Here's an example:
set right pane to a directory that contains 3 directories and a file. Select/highlight 2 directories. Those two directories must contain many files and subdirs. Copy to left pane.
Here I could see, right in the middle of copying:

Total: 0 of 0
Files processed: 23978 of 2

I think that the total numbers (0 of 0) are somehow wrong, but the most amazing ones are the number of files processed: it's growing as expected (because there are many files in subdirectories of selected directories). The "of" value is 2, and it correspond to the number of highlighted items to copy. Since the option "compute totals" is DISabled, 2 is expected there, but 23978 of 2 doesn't sound really pertinent.

The estimated time is wrong in that case, but I presume that it's just a secondary effect.

BTW, the "Total: 0 of 0" issue is already known as ticket #2503, IIUC.
