Description Rob Caskey 2004-08-16 00:39:08 UTC
In Non-spatial nautilus, dragging an item onto a location for an extended period
of time should cause naitlus to brose to that location so that you can drop it
in a sub-folder of that location.

This mecanism is called "spring-loaded folders", and is patented by Apple
(unfortunately), so it won't be implemented anytime soon in the official gnome
(maybe you can find patches for it in some places though).
