[Usability] spatial Nautilus, Filechooser: some suggestions

[Thorsten Seitz <thorsten seitz web de>]

Having upgraded to GNOME 2.6 I'm very happy with the spatial Nautilus and the 
new Filechooser. Thanks to all involved!

To round some corners I'd like to make some suggestions:

1. It would be nice to have the "Open Location" action not just available via 
Ctrl-L from a Nautilus window but from the Action menu in the panel, too.

2. The "Open Location" dialog should work like that of the Filechooser, i.e. 
it should offer completions in a drop down list, too.

3. Renaming the Home folder on the desktop should work on the Filechooser, 
too, i.e. the Home folder should appear with its new name in the bookmark 
list and on the path button. (The new name should be used throughout GNOME, 
i.e. in the Application menu of the panel, too).

4. If (3) is not possible it should at least be possible to rename the Home 
folder with respect to the Filechooser, because in the German translation its 
name is "Persönlicher Ordner" which is rather long for the path button.

5. No drives should appear in the bookmark list of the Filechooser. Instead 
the Computer location should appear there to allow relatively quick access to 
all drives. The reason is that (a) not all drives in the list are mounted or 
interesting (e.g. I have a CD-ROM, CD-Recorder, Floppy and two unmounted 
drives (for backups); all these are used almost never when opening/saving 
files but take up precious space in the bookmark list).

6. It should be possible to bookmark folders from their Nautilus windows.

7. Filesystem bookmarks should be accessible from the Locations menu in 
Nautilus windows.

What do you all think?
