feel free to file an enhancement bug in bugzilla.gnome.org.
On a related note, GNOME often provides type ahead search (if you start
with the first letter of the file/folder you want to find, starting
somewhere in the middle won't work). So you can just start typing if
focus is set to the folders list in nautilus.

 Instead of filing a new bug you may want to cc yourself to http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=170352
, btw I think I have to update the patch in there and try to push it upstream...
