I've been running rawhide nautilus for a while (currently
nautilus-2.90.1-4.gitf3bbee7.fc15.x86_64), and although there are some
'rough edges', it works well enough for me.

Here are some things I've noticed:

1. Nautilus no longer displays the desktop; believe I got some
indication that this was part of the move to a newer desktop ....

2. Nautilus no longer 'auto mounts' removable drives (e.g., thumb
drives, hard drives, etc.).  However, the device does appear in
'Places', and it mounts if you select it there.

3. Nautilus segfaults trying to open the device's root folder after
selecting in 'Places':
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=636543 .  But the device
is mounted properly....
