Description Baptiste Mille-Mathias 2009-12-11 21:50:08 UTC 
When you enable files to be displayed in tree sidebar, if you click on it, an error message is displayed.

+----------------------------------------------------------+
+----------------------------------------------------------+
| <b>Could not display "/home/baptiste/Bureau/foobar".</b> |
| The location is not a folder.                            |

Error File not Folder

I can confirm this, I think this show only a folder not files
Comment 2 Baptiste Mille-Mathias 2009-12-11 23:16:23 UTC 
If one right click on a file and choose "Open in a new tab" it is worse:

ERROR:nautilus-file.c:656:nautilus_file_get_internal: assertion failed: (location != NULL)

Program received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.

I can confirm this too in git. I propose this patch to solve the issue.

Do we really want to active/open files in the tree?
