This one is so annoying to me. I keep typing names of file and it searches it recursively, so instead of going to what I want faster, I waste time.

It's such a weird decision, as searching recursively something is a rare task, so having a dedicated button would be fine. While going to a file/folder in the current dir is pretty much the basic interaction with a file manager.

I don't get their reasoning there.

If somebody knows of any trick to get the old behavior back (even patching the damn nautilus), I'll take it. I'll probably upgrade in a few month and I'll need it badly.

Can you install Caja? Someone posted a patch in reply to my comment just above.
