nautilus's address buttons behavior



Hi!

I've started using nautilus's non-spatial mode, after a long time using spatial. I guess it really is more useful, but there's a feature I miss from spatial and that's the way the folder button on the lower left corner of the window behaved. This is the button I mean, in case you're not following me:

It lets you drag it to move or copy the folder, or even delete it if you move it to the trash and that is extremely handy.

I'd like non-spatial mode's address buttons behave that way. Those are the buttons I mean:

proposed behaviour:

-dragging the button moves the folder, if it has a custom icon a thumbnail appears.

-holding the shift key copies the folder instead of moving it. If you drag the folder to a removable device, the default option is copy and holding shift moves it.

-dragging to the trash erases the folder. nautilus shows the parent folder then (the window closes in spatial mode).

-dragging to a different location makes the address bar buttons change automatically to match the new location.

-hitting the right button summons a menu just like spatial's: copy, cut, send to trash...

-the same actions can be performed on higher or lower level folders, it only depends on what address button you press.



I really think those changes would be for the best, so please take some time to consider them.
