Public bug reported: Steps to reproduce: 1. Open nautilus and make sure to be in a folder with subfolders 2. Go to a subfolder and go back. Make sure that the subfolder is shown in the path line of nautilus (where you can click the name to go back to it) 3. Make a new tab in the current window (method seems to be irrelevant. Right-clicking the current directory name in the path, CTRL+ T etc.) 4. In the new tab, go to a subfolder different from the subfolder, you entered in the old tab 5. Go to the old tab. Notice that the path above the window no longer shows the subfolder you entered in this tab, but the one you entered in the new tab, though the current tab is supposed to be independent from it.
This seems to be completely dependent on the folders, you are leaving, since I can also go to another subfolder from a tab that had nothing to do with these folders and the path of all tabs currently in the upper folders will also change. I expect it to keep the path history corresponding to the tab. I'm guessing this is not a feature.
