The three things that Marlin misses are:
A) Stability
B) Split screen (multiple panes) ... maybe?

Maximal features should not be our goal. What's best for the default
install should be.
There are always going to be other file managers a user can install
from the USC for more features. We should pick a path that is best in
terms of maintainability for us and usability for

Picking one of the forks of 3.4 nautilus means that either we are the
