Hello, There is a Nautilus limitation which affects Beagle's usability. Once Beagle has found the file I need, I may want to execute several actions on the file (e.g. delete it, move it, open it with a secondary viewer). Of course, Beagle cannot do this, since it would be feature duplication. That's why it offers a button "reveal in file manager", which opens a nautilus window in the appropriate folder.
The problem is that the file is not highlighted in nautilus. If the folders contains many files, this makes it difficult to locate the file. (in particular it requires to scroll down). This somewhat defeats the purpose of using beagle. :-( The heart of the problem is that Nautilus does not expose a command to open a given folder AND highlight a specific file within it. (this involves scrolling to the file if needed). Although Nat Friedman (who asked me to talk to you about this) did not specify this, it is my understanding that adding a command line option to Nautilus would be enough. Could such an option be added to Nautilus? What do you think?
