Bug Description

When I use the forward and backward mousenav buttons on my mouse in Nautilus they do not work. This is extremely annoying, especially after having migrated from Windows Explorer. My fingers have many papercuts on them, please fix this!

Thank you.

Yes, I agree, I was just coming here to report this problem. It would be very nice to be able to use the back and forward buttons on my mouse in nautilus like I can in Windows Explorer.

I also agree. Perhaps something analogous to the keyboard shortcuts applet that lets you assign actions to the mouse buttons?

Also came here to report this. If an app is going to have back/forward functionality, the mouse button shortcuts need to work!

 Thank you for bringing this bug to our attention.
Does this problem persist in Karmic? Kindly test this in karmic and report back,Papercuts are minor issues that exist in Karmic

 A paper cut is a minor usability annoyance that an average user would encounter on his/her first day of using a new installation of Ubuntu 9.10.

 For further info about papercuts criteria , pls read > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PaperCut

 Don't worry though, This bug has been marked as "incomplete" ONLY in the papercuts project.
