I don't want to argue again about the fact that this change is good or wrong,
but I can't let you say something wrong like "spatial Nautilus itself was
introduced as a last minute change". Spatial nautilus wasn't a last minute
change: it was announced in September 2003
(http://mail.gnome.org/archives/desktop-devel-list/2003-September/msg00446.html),
at the beginning of the development cycle for GNOME 2.6 (see
http://gnome.org/start/2.5/ for the GNOME 2.6 schedule) and it had been
discussed since September 2002.
