Hi,

Bryan can surely give a better opinion on this but... I think it's
better to stick with a tabbed interface. It's more intuitive to use
and anyway we should keep the number of displayed properties sensible.
For nautilus I dont think it's necessary to show everything, just show
the most important informations which can fit in one tab...
