Comment 5 for bug 508842

don't make me wrong i didn't say the hierarchical file system is useless, as a developer i need it too :)
What i am saying is there's a huge part that need to be developed that don't event exist in any linux DE, a semantic file browser functionalities. i think we are already armed for a file system hierarchy with breadcrumb and entry mode it could be better as in your mockup dan with a combined breadcrumb which provide the two. But for now i prefer develop what is missing, what don't even exist. And finally i am sure that i'll end up using more the semantic part than the traditional hierarchy one, that's why i am asking if it really worth the effort. We'll see with usability :)
