Hey,

Been using Thunar for some time now and it sure beats other file
managers, even in this early stage... Anyway, here's few usability
improvement ideas that came to my mind:

- Remembering window size, maybe as an option in preferences. I'm using
1600x1200 resolution and desktop size seems such a waste when launching
Thunar. First thing I do every time after launching it, is making the
window bigger.

- Option in right click menu or in file menu to add a folder to side
pane (as a shortcut). I know drag'n'drop to side menu works but it isn't
that obvious to "normal" user without reading the manual. This would
increase Thunars out-of-box readiness and overall usability

- Trashcan in sidepane, has this been discussed already?

- "Remember selection" option as check box in Open with -dialog. I know
that default application can be selected from file properties dialog,
but being able to do so from Open with -dialog also would improve the
usability greatly (IMHO)

- Single click support, lots of people have been used to using this.
This requires most effort from me to get used to after so many years of
single clicking
