Public bug reported:

Nautilus 3.4.2 Extract Here function interprets backslashes as
characters not directories in a ZIP file which probably has directories
saved in some MS Windows way, so that directories are stored using
backslash.

I run Extract Here on a ZIP file and the result are files with backslash
in file name, e.g.

lf78011331_US_DEM/US_DEM\info\arc0000.nit
lf78011331_US_DEM/US_DEM\us_dem\dblbnd.adf

The expected result is what unzip gives me, e.g.:

US_DEM/info/arc0000.nit
US_DEM/us_dem/dblbnd.adf

UnZip 6.00 of 20 April 2009 recognizes the directory structure and
creates correct file names and directories.

I had this problem with the attached ZIP file (public domain data from USGS) 
with content:
./US_DEM.grid.aux
./US_DEM.prj
./us_dem
./us_dem/sta.adf
./us_dem/prj.adf
...
./Metadata.dbf
...
./info
./info/arc0000.nit
./info/arc0002.nit
...
./Metadata.prj

(two sub-directories: us_dem and info, everything is in one parent
directory US_DEM)
