feature idea: conditional directory layout

[paul <an_appleseed_cast btopenworld com>]

hi there.  i'm using the gnome 2 version of nautilus, and i'm really
happy with it.  one feature that i think would really improve it's
usability (apart from adding spring-loaded folders ;) would be a
conditional layout.  for example, i have my ogg directories in a list
view.  currently i have to switch to that view manually, is i haven't
already done so.  but i think it would be cool if i could set up a rule
for nautilus to check when i go into a different dir.  for example, 
if 50% of files in current dir == .ogg, use list view.
or
if current dir contents > 1000 items, use list view, and 50% zoom level.
and a final example...
if 50% of files in current dir == images(.png, jpeg, gif), use gThumb
viewer.
kinda like having filtering in the file-manager.

pre-defined views and layouts could be used as defaults - or the user
could just disable them completely.


thanks for reading, and thanks for hacking on gnome!
