As it happens, we did originally have screenshots and recommendations in
that chapter that named Nautilus and Galeon and explained exactly how we
thought their toolbars should look.  But in the end we decided to remove
them and replace them with something a little more generic.  

However, IIRC the screenshots labelled "Example toolbar from a browser
window" and "Example toolbar from a file manager window" are much the
same as the ones that formed part of that original recommendation, so I
guess you can infer that's what we'd eventually like to see Galeon and
Nautilus looking like...

Oh, and thanks, I've fixed the typo :)

Cheeri,
Calum.
