You bring up a good point.

One of the hassles with upgrading are these subtle changes in the file
manager. Less experienced users really get confused. I observe these
types of file management confusions when training new users on the
various apps.

Okay, this is OT, but ... after upgrading to 4.1, double clicking the
home folder opens Nautilus in some reduced view (just icons, no address
bar, ...). Right clicking and picking Browse gets the view I was
expecting. This is a change from how RH9 was launching the File browser.
How do I get the old behavior back? Better yet, is there a way to define
(per user or system-wide) what file browser is launched when the home
folder is double clicked?
