Please add hotkeys consistent with other nautilus views.
Ubuntu bug about that: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/83491 "Shortcut Ctrl-C not working in Nautilus treeview Binary package hint: nautilus When Nauilus is operated with a treeview in the left pane, it is possible to copy a folder with the right-click menu, command 'Edit'. This folder can than be pasted anywhere where desired. However, this same copy operation is NOT possible through the assigned shortcut Ctrl-C. When issueing this command, nothing happens. Within the top 'Edit' menu, the copy command is grayed out, meaning not available, although this functionallity actually works. May be the graying out is the reason while the shorcut Ctrl-C is not working. Probably, Ctrl-C is connected to the (disabled) menu item. ..."

This bug should no longer be present with the latest Nautilus redesign.
"This bug should no longer be present with the latest Nautilus redesign." Indeed, there are chances that removing the Tree view altogether should remove its everlasting bugs with it. Well, Gnome, you've grown into a Troll, really. All that was good in this project is gone now and it makes me really sad. And angry.
