Hello.
I thought about the reason for my question.
The point is that more and more 'desktop-files' are just html, or even xml / 
java / php and such stuff. So, web-browser and filemanager are necessarily 
fusioning.   If you're going to deal with files you sometimes can't remember 
what's in there, and you want quickly look it up.  IMHO could be only 
text-view, such simple as the mc-builtin-viewer, but with preserving links. 
Or why not invoking lynx inside nautilus. But there should be _any_  fast 
running  feature even in nautilus. That beeing the major advance before real 
browsers: quick and easy lookup, without the extensive picture-and-layout 
stuff.

With freindly regards -
