Spatial mess prevention

[Jorge Bernal]

   Today, at #ubuntu-motu, I noticed the last update of nautilus package:

nautilus (2.10.0-0ubuntu7) hoary; urgency=low

  * debian/patches/02_ubuntuspatial.patch:
    - changes to the spatial mode. Close the folders by default while browsing.
      You can set \"/apps/nautilus/preferences/no_ubuntu_spatial\" to get the
      previous spatial behaviour.

   But I think, like quite others, that this behaviour may not be the best
   option.  We  could  discuss that forever and lose a lot of our precious
   time.

   Better  than  this,  is  to  develop  an  alternative solution. Let the
   Technical  Board, the sabdfl, or whoever has taken that decision happy,
   and let the user choose at the same time :)

   The  dpatch  is  at  [2]02_ubuntuspatial.patch,  or  a  new  version of
   nautilus at [3]nautilus_2.10.0-0ubuntu8.diff.gz. My changelog:

nautilus (2.10.0-0ubuntu8) hoary; urgency=low

  * debian/patches/02_ubuntuspatial.patch:
    - use more consistent names (close_previous_windows) and add a GUI option in
    preferences dialog to set the default behaviour.
