Eject/Unmount icon in Nautilus sidebar should have hover and click states

[Mat Tomaszewski]

Lack of hover state for this icon makes it feel non-clickable. Click action does not feel right either, as you don't see any immediate feedback (e.g. color or bg change).

I'd suggest making the icon glow on hover (similar to folder icon behaviour) and go darker on click.

Since we know this one waits to be fixed... would anyone like to submit their design proposals?

[Milan Bouchet-Valat (nalimilan)]

Mat: See upstream bug for an explanation of the problems behind this seemingly trivial improvement.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

The change is not trivial and required modifications to gtk to allow doing such changes in nautilus later

[Lorenzo (lorenzo-delledonne)]

Isn't this a feature implemented in Gtk-Sharp by the Banshee team? I'm thinking about the "Rating" row.

[A. Walton (awalton)]

Banshee has a completely different tree view code base.

[David Siegel (djsiegel-deactivatedaccount)]

Upstream bug report indicates that this is a difficult fix due to GtkTreeview complexity; not a paper cut.

Marcus is making progress on this one. So re-opening this bug.

Marcus is working on this.

[Sebastien Bacher (seb128)]

the bug has been fixed upstream but not in the 2.32 serie which maverick is using

[Luca Ferretti (elle.uca)]

For the record, crrently hover (highlight) is available on git master (nautilus 2.91.x)

nautilus 3.0 is now in Oneiric
