I've asked on the upstream tracker if a patch could be provided, as
there are some screenshots of functional versions and a developer
claiming to have a patch for potential merging. If I can get one I'll
throw it in my PPA and it can be evaluated. The patch probably won't
be trivial but maybe it would be useful to evaluate as a usability
issue anyway, just not a paper cut. It still seems preferable that
upstream nautilus supply this behavior though.
