Bug 538783 is one issue where this caused trouble, and the patch is
heavily debated upstream.
Lucid after beta-1 is not the time for us to spend endless hours on

I propose that we just fix nautilus instead. It seems generally safer to

The policy has been approved by the Technical Board now, so I'll make
