It would be OK to put a bug in bugzilla for this, although it's not likely
anyone is going to tackle this soon.

The topic is actually a subtle one. The tradeoff is between having a list
view that behaves a lot more like other lists, or a list view that behaves a
lot more like the icon view. Back when we had more contributors (when many
Eazel employees were coding on Nautilus) we had planned to redo the list
view to be a lot more like the icon view and share code with the icon view.
