[Bug 41030] Re: Can't get to gnome-search-tool once beagle is installed

I do not agree that this is a Beagle bug because (by default) beagled runs as your own user and indexes only your home directory.  Running the indexer as root on the entire file system seems to be a Very Bad Idea from a security standpoint.

If the intended behaviour for most people is to search the entier filesystem nautilus should be changed to not use beagled even if running, but I think most users running beagled understand and are happy with this.

If no maintainer intends to make a change from the Nautilus side, please close this bug.
