Place user bookmarks on the top of side panel in order to fast access.

Do it in this autumn release! It is impossible to good work with bookmarks, hided in the bottom!

-> GtkFileChooser

You're refering to GtkFileChooser, not Nautilus, which is just the file manager, reassigning.
BTW, I find this a bad idea, but it may depend on how many bookmarks you have and how much you use them.
Comment 3 Andrey 2008-09-13 13:00:26 UTC 
I report this bug because consider that quick access links which user choose for himself should have more priority to get best place in compare with system-setted quick links (volumes).
It can be named "adaptive usability behaviour".
Comment 4 Emmanuele Bassi (:ebassi) 2008-09-13 13:45:03 UTC 
please, bring this on usability@gnome.org and have the usability team give its input - otherwise the discussion is completely moot.
Comment 5 Christian Dywan 2008-09-14 02:29:39 UTC 
For what I want, all hard disks being in the list is what can make bookmarks hard to use. So removing them would already help.  Maybe a single "Computer" item instead of all individuals could do the trick, then for anyone who needs to see all disks, they are still easily accessible.

OS X Finder and file chooser sidebar prefs

Perhaps we just need finer-grained control over the sidebar contents, like OS X has...?
