Is anyone, especially upstream developers, working on it?
Is the a plan for nautilus, expected features and rought ideas on when
they will be worked on? Or is development of new features completly
random and hap-hazard?
On the subject of patches, how many people understand the working of
nautilus well enough to even attempt it? I dug into the smb:// code for
gnome-vfs once, and it was very non-linear. What functions would need
work to do get wildcards/filtering to work?
