Glad it is of help to you! I feel you about the OCD - this is where
those patches came from ;)
Too bad those changes never actually made it into Thunar; I just
remembered that I already submitted those 2 patches one and half years ago:
https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12126
https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12153
Either I did something wrong with the reports or development is near
dead after all.
Cheers!
Markus.
