Bug description:
At the moment Nautilus shows "Send To..." in it's right-click menu.
This brings up a dialog with a drop-down list with items "Instant
Message (Pidgin)", "Email (Evolution)", "Removable disks and shares"
or "CD/DVD Creator" depending what is found.
The rest of the dialog morphs depending on what you select, maybe
showing another drop-down with online contacts.
Opening this dialog, you will only see one option ("Instant Message
(Pidgin)" if it's running). The other options are not immediately
visible. These are unnecessarily buried, especially for a new user
looking to send files to bluetooth or a flash drive.
I believe showing these options in a sub-menu of "Send To >" would
increase discoverability. Pressing "Instant Message (Pidgin)" would
just bring up the dialog with the correct item preselected in the
drop-down list.
Bluetooth and USB storage devices might be listed directly, after a
separator, rather than showing the dialog.
Does anybody have experience on how well new users discover these
options, specifically sending to a device?
