I definitely support Brian's idea to _group_ in a "location bar" all
those buttons showing the current fs path. And, if possible, we should
reduce their height sizing!

There is no location to display when you are doing a search? How about
displaying the location/folder, in which you are searching? If you use
the search field, the search should be conducted by default in the
folder, which is open. In the current implementation, the search bar
replaces the location
considering my comment 40 i changed my mind
finally it's logical to have the search field replacing the location bar since
there is no location to display when doing a search (by definition)
Therefore here are my suggestions :
1. fix Bug #57210 (already done!)

I definitely agree the current Nautilus view is far too complicated. It
should be pared down, and should take up less screen real estate. There
should be one menu bar and one tool bar, that is it. Another row of
chrome is acceptable to show tabs. Anything above this is guaranteed to
be too much.

I think it's a great idea to have the file browser look like and work
just like the standard internet browser. Simplifying and cleaning up the

Hi guys,
I think that there should be option to create your own toolbar in Nautilus.
Whatever we will put together will never 100% satisfy all users (especially
power users) and at the end linux is also about choice.

Buttons are too bulky for the breadcrumb. I'd prefer a different widget;
something that made them all look like part something, but independent
within. If anyone else shares the sentiment, I can make a mockup.
The zoom buttons in the statusbar is a good choice, as is the right-
aligned search text

I remember seeing a mockup of Nautilus once (on planet.gnome.org) where the
zoom and view controls where moved to the status bar. In place of these

It's a pretty good idea because it makes use of a mostly unused space to keep
functionalities.

Some comments there:
- GNOME has a preference to display labels on toolbar or not, see the interface
tab in the appareance capplet
- changing all the button to don't display text doesn't seem the best move, you
