I guess when always_use_location_entry is true then Control+L won't work (always means always).
I don't use Gnome 3 yet. This bug is more about a removed button in Gnome 2. If you think Control+L does not work as expected there, then please open a new bug to keep Gnome as good as it is!

The right Ctrl-L combination does not work to toggle the version of the field (the left Ctrl-L combination still works, though it took me a very annoyingly long time to find that out). Expected behavior: Toggle button should be there and be OBVIOUS and either Ctrl-L should work to toggle field. Nautilus MUST have a location field that a directory path can be typed into or pasted into, as with a web browser. Without this Nautilus would be nearly useless [for me] - I would switch to a different file browser or out of Gnome all together. It's a show-stopper.
