show-advanced-permissions setting needed



I've always used dconf-editor to enable the "show-advanced-permissions" setting for Nautilus Permissions. 
Upon installing Ubuntu 13.04 with GNOME 3.6 (I believe) I cannot find the setting. It's historically been 
located at dconf-editor> org> gnome> nautilus> preferences> show-advanced-permissions. Perhaps the setting 
has been moved?

The advanced-permissions makes managing file/folder permissions a lot easier and is a must-have setting. I 
set up Ubuntu computers thru the office and everyone prefers the advanced-permissions to the current default. 
Another advantage to advanced-permissions is that it allows users control over the execute permission across 
User/Group/Other (whereas the default GUI only allows it to be set on or off for all three categories).

I hope show-advanced-permissions wasn't removed? That would be a bad move. I ask that it please be reinstated 
in dconf-editor in the next GNOME release or that the advanced-permission view be made the default.

I filed a bug report but it has received no attention: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=702685
