I guess when always_use_location_entry is true then Control+L won't work
(always means always).
I don't use Gnome 3 yet. This bug is more about a removed button in
Gnome 2. If you think Control+L does not work as expected there, then
please open a new bug to keep Gnome as good as it is!
Open it
Is this issue still relevant after Gnome3 with new nautilus was
released?

Me too I still don't agree that the saved space of this button was worth
removing it. New users often complain about not being able to edit the
path. They never find Ctrl+L themselves. But I do agree that there might
be a better gui element than a button with a pencil on it.
Since Unity is now
Control-L doesn't work for me either. Obviously, there is either
something wrong with the code, or there is a hidden setting buried
somewhere that is still set. FYI, I did have always_use_location_entry
in the past, probably when I was on Gnome 2.0.

I believe this bug should be marked as fix. The toggle is available in
the Customize Toolbars window under the name Edit Location, and
users who wish to revert to the old functionality can just add it next
to the Location Bar.

I really like this new default in Nautilus. If I want to type an address

Well I was a bit annoyed with this as well until I found the CTRL+l.
Still the process is not consistent.
If you notice in the file browser popup there is still the icon to open the
location bar.
That actually even behaves in a much more odd way, instead of converting the
breadcrumbs to address
I'm afraid the way to get things done in FOSS is not to behave like
this. You should be helpful and not cause a lot of noise, and perhaps
provide patches. Whining just makes the developers tune out the bug in
question.

This change hurts newbies also! What is the first thing we do when we
teach a newbie how our file structure works? We draw the thing, then we
show them how to construct a path (/home/me/Documents/ etc). With the
text mode switched on, they can readily see the typed path and then they
realize
Please put the SWITCH between Buttons and Text back into Nautilus.
Everybody uses it as they see fit, including newbies! It eliminates
human error when copying and pasting the Text from Nautilus into other
apps and on the commandline and greatly eases my day, as I use both
modes, whichever applies
PLEASE, PLEASE PLEASE re-enable this feature!

@Maha: What do you miss most? Do you use the text-based mode to copy a
path to clipboard or to edit it?
Copying can be done by the context menu of each breadcrumb button! And
to edit the path you must use the keyboard anyway, so pressing Ctrl+L
first is not a big overhead. But I agree, the
This change from a global Nautilus mode to a temporary text field is
hard to adopt. But I start to like the new look and behavior! Although
I'd expect Ctrl-L to *toggle*, namely to switch back to breadcrumb when
pressed while entering a Location.
@Beetroot: the flaky behavior you mention
For me, this button is also very important, because I often need to copy
address to the actibe path.
I'd like this button to be back in the next version.

This is a really weird change. The breadcrumb doesn't expand to fill the
entire width of the window, so there is hardly a lack of free horizontal
space.
Also the behavior of the 2 current methods (Ctrl-L or /) is flaky. If
you type / then Esc then Ctrl-L, the behavior of Ctrl-L changes to
match
Another example of the developers thinking they know best (window
buttons on the left etc.) Us poor users need a kindlier migration path
to new 'features'. Not seeing the breadcrumb/location toggle button, I
immediately tried the 'view' menu, then EditPreferences - no joy. Now I
