I asked this question: How can I drag and drop files into the Ubuntu One bookmark in Nautilus?How can I drag and drop files into the Ubuntu One bookmark in Nautilus? It turned out that the reason why it wasn't possible was a bug in Nautilus which has been solved following today's update.

The question could possibly be seen as a bug report but the way it was asked has provided a useful answer with possible workarounds. Essentially now though the answer is "You can just drag and drop, it works". I was just wondering what the preferred way of dealing with this question is now, should I:

  1. Delete the question
  2. Add a new answer linking to the bug report and saying that the behaviour works as expected now.
  3. Just leave a comment on the answer
  4. Edit the current answer to include information that the bug is solved, but leave the original, useful, workarounds.

Or something else?
