At least it does here. I don't always want to waste the space for a "location bar". I want the path in the window title bar. The title bar isn't doing anything else interesting -- just showing the last component of the path is dumb. The pen-writing-on-paper icon of the location bar just toggles between two ways of displaying the path: pure editable text or a scrollable row clickable blobs, one for each path component. Both modes would seem to have merits. There seems to be some important but unclear option: Edit: Preferences: Behavior: Always open in browser windows. If I tick that, I get a lot more "stuff" (wasting space) in new nautilus windows.
