I don't always want to waste the space for a "location bar". I want
the path in the window title bar. The title bar isn't doing anything
else interesting -- just showing the last component of the path is
dumb.
The pen-writing-on-paper icon of the location bar just toggles between
two ways of displaying the path: pure editable text or a scrollable
row clickable blobs, one for each path component. Both modes would seem to
have merits.
There seems to be some important but unclear option:
Edit: Preferences: Behavior: Always open in browser windows.
If I tick that, I get a lot more "stuff" (wasting space) in new
nautilus windows.
