Description Pacho Ramos 2009-10-31 10:30:36 UTC 
Hello

I hit this problem with new epiphany behavior that opens download place just after ending a download. When I downloaded an image to a local folder, I got nautilus opened in that place, the problem is that opened folder contains a lot of images, having to manually find just downloaded image.

I think that could be interesting that epiphahy could launch nautilus preselecting the image, I mean, I would see nautilus window opened showing that image after automatically scrolling to find it.
