This is good stuff. Most are the kinds of things a developer new to 
nautilus would have a good chance of fixing.

No, that is correct. We're planning to not branch for something like two 
months. We need to focus more on making the little details bugfree and 
fixing all crashes. We've been doing a bit to much feature work in 
comparison to stabilization work in the last two major releases.

Having it on the web (with links to bugzilla) would be great. The nautilus 
bugzilla component is quite hard to get a grip of, since its so full of 
stuff.
