Oh men that makes me sad.. So this feature was in but removed intentionally because it was way to easy to unintentional trigger a rename... Oke, a few things about that. .1 Why remove the feature instead of adding a gconf key set by default to disabled? .2 Why is the user protected from that feature (by REMOVING it) if it doesn't want the protection (like me) .3 Is this a 1 person decision to remove it or was the majority of the community in favor of removing it? I really just don't understand some decisions made in the gnome past (and present). In my opinion you should never throw away a working feature! disable it at the most but nothing worse then that. -- nautilus-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/nautilus-list
