Description Bastien Nocera 2008-04-25 10:41:46 UTC 
1. Launch "nautilus -n --no-desktop --browser burn:///"
2. See that there's no root available on the left in the "Tree" page of the sidebar

Nautilus should show burn:/// as a location on the left, so the user knows how to get back to the location where to drop their files.
Comment 1 Cosimo Cecchi 2008-04-30 10:57:29 UTC 
You can still access it with "Go->CD/DVD Creator" or from the Places menu.
I am not sure I agree with this report...I have rarely felt the need to browse the burn:/// location, most of the time that folder is just empty.
Comment 2 Bastien Nocera 2008-04-30 11:02:33 UTC 
The whole point is to offer a way for the user to drag'n'drop their files to burn easily.

If we opened burn:/// and it had a root in the sidebar, then the user would know how to get back to the burn:/// location.

See bug 119991 comment 25 for the details about the workflow changes we're trying to make (and bug 529867 for the specific one relating to this bug).

Updating component.
Comment 4 William Jon McCann 2012-07-20 12:03:46 UTC 
This bug should no longer be present with the latest Nautilus redesign.
