Eep! No.

I've taken an indefinite hiatus from . . . non-work computers.
Two (really lame) hurricanes came my way and left me too much free time;
therefore I've been making a nuisance of myself again. ;-)

Even so, I don't know nautilus or the tree widgets well enough. From
what I recall, there was something in libegg that was being developed
for the nautilus tree view. It'd take me at least three weeks to get
to know all the parts, and I don't know that I'd be ready then to work
on it.

Sorry,
