This bug report is invalid because GTK does not have a built-in
pathbutton control for USC to use. Nautilus's use of buttons is ugly and
awkward: they're a hierarchy but don't look like it, they're draggable
but don't look like it, and the use of scroll buttons instead of
ellipsis in deep hierarchies makes navigation unnecessarily slow.
I think it would be worthwhile if the USC pathbutton control could be
ported to GTK, because it would be useful for applications that let you
navigate through a deep hierarchy, or mobile applications that don't
have room for a separate navigation pane. But I think Nautilus should
not use it, because the elements would still be draggable and not look
like it. I suggest that Nautilus instead use a flat hierarchy like
Windows Explorer and Mac OS X Finder do.
