MPT, to answer your questions:

- 'Preview' would preview the file in Gloobus.  If Gloobus or another
previewer is not used this item can be removed.

- 'Open' opens the file in the default application.  'Open with' lets
the user choose an alternative application with which to open the file.
This functionality is currently in Nautilus, and the proposed menu
structure is only a minor update.

- The 'Take this file and' menu allows the user to perform actions other
than 'open' on a file.  Applications will be able to plug into this
menu, and providing an appropriate space into which applications can add
actions.  This option will save a lot of clutter that would otherwise
appear at the top level menu.

- Re. the print option, if this is very difficult to do I agree it would
sensible to spin it off into a standalone project.   This feature should
not block the rest of the menu reorganisation described in this bug.

- Good point, these items should be updated to 'Share with Ubuntu One'
and 'Publish with Ubuntu One'

- The wording 'Make Alias' is used in OSX and 'Create Shortcut' is used
in Windows.  We should use consistent terminology that is familiar to
users of other operating systems where possible to help new users
transition to Ubuntu.  The wording "Create alias" aims to give a degree
of familiarity to users of both Windows and OSX.

- Re. zoom in and zoom out controls (is this what you were referring to
when talking about icon size?), these controls will remain in both the
Nautilus interface top tool bar and also in the application menu, so I
see no need for them also to be replicated in the right click menu.
