Some information from the upstream bug: it turns out that it is configurable - the way to restore the backspace key functionality is to add:

(gtk_accel_path "<Actions>/ShellActions/Up" "BackSpace")

to ~/.config/nautilus/accels.

It's obviously a pain to have to do this manually for every Ubuntu installation, but at least it makes nautilus more user-friendly again.

The upstream bug is flagged as resolved due to being a duplicate of what is actually not a duplicate bug, so I doubt upstream will take any further action.
