Description Anders Jonsson 2014-03-23 21:35:12 UTC
When viewing a folder, one can right click to get up a menu with six entries, these contain:

Mo_ve to trash
-------------
_Move to parent folder


These two are however very different, one talks about the folder, the second about the user. The first refers to that the folder should be moved to trash, while the second refers to that the user should go up a step in the file hierarchy.

If one just reads the descriptions, one could be led to believe that the second entry moves the actual folder up in the file hierarchy.

To avoid confusion, I suggest that "_Move to parent folder" be renamed "_Go to parent folder" to make it clearer what will happen when that menu entry is chosen.

I agree. If maintainers also agree, I would push this patch.
