Icons/emblems for UNIX directories
Last modified: 2010-06-25 20:56:09 UTC
Bug 113654 requests that Nautilus displays emblems or specific icons for UNIX directories like /etc /bin and /usr. What do the pixel pushers think? ;)
Well they surely don't belong to the base theme. Every time we add anything to a base theme, we are making themeability a more theoretical concept as there is more stuff for each theme to cover. These are nowhere near being essential to be covered in the naming spec and be included in a base theme. I will comment on the original bug as to why I think not even nautilus should ship these.
