I don't think this bug is still valid since there is no need for a parent button in the latest version of Nautilus in Ubuntu 13.04 since there are buttons for every directory upwards of the current directory that you're in at the moment. See screenshot.

There is a menu entry, and there are keyboard shortcuts, but neither gives an easy way to quickly navigate up in the directory tree with the mouse (in particular if you want to go up two or three levels).
