Bug Description

Enabling the shortcut for "open a terminal here" in Ubuntu 16.10, by uncommenting (or adding)

(gtk_accel_path "<Actions>/ExtensionsMenuGroup/TerminalNautilus:OpenFolderLocal" "F12")

in ~/.config/nautilus/accels is not working.

I tested it on an upgraded machine from 16.04 to 16.10. The accelerator was working on 16.04 and it is not in 16.10.

Also tested on freshly installed machine with 16.10. Same problem.

Did the action accelerator changed for opening a terminal in the local folder?

The file ~/.config/nautilus/accels seems to be completely ignored in recent versions of nautilus. Check also upstream bug: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=752666

Ubuntu isn't going to add that feature back, it should be worked upstream instead
