Comment 8 for bug 1300308

Hasn't Canonical had enough evidence that it's time to replace Nautilus with something else?

I mean, this bug is the result of an Ubuntu patch that had to be done in order to revert an upstream regression that made Nautilus completely unusable but that the upstream developers refused to revert. And it is only one of a never-ending list of regressions that have been introduced upstream in Nautilus BY DESIGN in recent years.

Why keep using a file browser (which is a fundamental component of a Desktop system) which is maintained upstream by a bunch of retards?

Constantly figuring out patches to revert changes that break usability in intolerable ways (changes that the upstream developers won't ever recognize are wrong, let alone fix), then having to fix bugs that are caused by those patches, and so on?
Striving to maintain decent quality and UX by fighting against the active and stubborn efforts of the upstream developers to DEGRADE it?
Isn't it less work to switch to a sane file browser and abandon Nautilus altogether?
