I don't think that a previously discussed and ironed out more sophisticated extension framework will be rejected. It would be nice to have some more high-level APIs/hooks like Epiphany has. I've also read a bug request today where a user requests terminal integration. We just don't have to enable/ship it by default, and as long as the wrapper layer is cleanly designed and doesn't cause new mess and design headache, I think Alex and the rest of the Nautilus maintainer team is also open to your ideas. As a starting point, we might have to add support for multiple content views to NautilusWindow, add get_active_contents_view API and maybe tune the menu layout. I think this is really doable with the current Nautilus architecture. :) -- Christian Neumair <chris gnome-de org>
