Description Tobias 2008-11-18 08:58:18 UTC 
hello nautilus team,

i am very thankful for the new tab feature in nautilus, but i would prefer nautilus to open new folders in existing window as a new tab instead of a new nautilus instance. mainly i want this feature for clicking on a folder on desktop.

compare this behavior to clicking on a html link in an email / im chat window:
as you click the link, there will be no second instance of firefox / opera /... but a new tab in existing window. 

i would be very grateful if you could manage this.
