Public bug reported:
I realize this is obviously by design, but there's no good reason for
such a design which is plain wrong, so it has to be reverted.
Nautilus used to have a normal menu similar to most applications: File,
Edit, View...
Now it only has a "Files" menu (where "Files" is the new "shown name"
for Nautilus, formerly known as "Home Directory" and god knows what will
be its name in the next release, consistently with Ubuntu's absurd
obsession of changing the most basic programs' names and always hide the
real name, in this case Nautilus).
Why isn't there any more, for example, an Edit menu with a "Copy", "Paste",
"Cut", etc items?
Of course all those things can be done in other ways, but since we're going to
have a menu bar on the top of the screen anyway, it's nonsensical to remove
from it all the menus one expects to find, consistently with all applications.
Also, that was a place where one could se the keyboard shortcuts associated to
each action.
Or name one single good reason for removing the traditional application
menus.
