Feature request: browsing filesystem in gnome "computer" menu

[Eric Feliksik]

The title says it all.

Because of spatial nautilus, browsing deep directory structures can fill 
the screen very fast. I know it can be turned off, and I know I can 
right-click and "browse" a folder as well, but...

How about having an item in the "Computer" menu where you can browse the 
entire filesystem, IN the menu? I have seen it before, but don't know 
where. Maybe KDE or something.

I think it would be very useful. I imagine that when the user browsed 
the menu all the way to /wow/this/is/a/deep/directory/stucture/ ,  one 
might click the uppermost seperated option "Open in a window" (the files 
and folders in 'structure/' are listed below that option) to open that 
folder in a window.

Or, one might click a file to run it with the default handler.

What do you guys think? Does it already exist for gnome as an applet? 
Would it make sense to include it in hoary?

Thanks,

Eric Feliksik
