@Rodrigo, I don't think that whatever was done truly fixes the bug. This
was a very bad GUI interface issue to begin with, i.e. users have
expected behavior A, got behavior B instead, there was not an actual
crash involved. What the users expected in this case was for the Trash,
Files, and Media icons to lead to an already-opened window of Nautilus /
file browser, opening a new tab when necessary. Instead of implementing
behavior A, the fix came up with behavior C, which is somewhere in-
between behaviors A and B, but it doesn't resolve the original issue,
i.e. a separate window is still opened in many cases.

I propose to keep this bug open and revert the status to in-progress for
unity, until the *desired* behavior is fully implemented. I think it
would be very bad if unity developers don't take into account the wishes
of the community in this case. If the unity team doesn't think this
should be the default behavior, then they should provide an option to
easily switch from what they think the behavior should be to this one,
and let people know, and only then mark this as resolved/fixed.

All, please let us know if you think what I'm proposing is reasonable.
