Description eli 2001-09-10 00:45:24 UTC 
If you right-click within the Tree Sidebar panel (which currently lacks context
menus), it'll handle it as a left-click. 

Other parts of Nautilus that lack context menus currently ignore right-clicks,
rather than treating them as left-clicks.

* REPRODUCIBLE: Always

* STEPS TO REPRODUCE:

1. Open the Tree Sidebar panel while pointing Nautilus to a directory location.
(I used /tmp)
2. Right-click on a file (or folder)

* ACTUAL RESULTS: 

 Nautilus responds exactly as if you had left-clicked on the file: if you
clicked on a file, it attempts to display its content. 

(If a folder, it expands in the tree panel, and its files are displayed in the
context view.) 

* EXPECTED RESULTS: 

  Right-clicking on an object that does not have right-click operations should
have no effect. (At least, that's the case elsewhere within Nautilus and GNOME.)

Right and left clicks do the "right thing" now.  Fix is verified.
