For me it's very annoying. I migrated from Ubuntu 17.04 to 17.10 several days before, and just cant use nautilus. I'm using this type-ahead feature for navigate. At the beginning i tried to switch off recursive search in nautilus to speedup it. But when i want to use recursive search i should go to the setting and switching it on again. I even tried to replace nautilus with another file manager, but gnome can't showing desktop items without nautilus. Why type-ahead can't exists as optional setting? Type-ahead still works in open/save dialogs, why it can't be in nautilus?
