<font face="Comic Sans MS">I would like to suggest the availability
of shortcuts to files and folders (like those used in Windows)
also in addition to the currently available symbolic links.
Symbolic links do have their useful place, but they can also be a
real pain in the ass on occasion. For example, I regularly have to
jump back and forth several times during the day between two or
more folders. Using Ubuntu symlinks for this purpose just takes me
deeper and deeper into an artificial directory structure with an
ever increasing path length. Windows type shortcuts, which jumps
directly to another folder using the normal path, would work much
better in this case. Please consider this. It would help a lot.<br>
