neither can I now, I expect I just saw a screenshot of someone who had 
patched it back in, or possibly the Mint fork of Nautilus.
If you have a read of the original bug report 
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=676897 it really does seem 
like the code was just deleted because a designer didn't like it much 
and thought it might not work well on a touch interface - this isn't 
something that was dropped accidentally as part of a refactoring of the 
sidebar code or anything like that, they just don't want it. There could 
be a brilliant touch friendly implementation of it, perhaps a bit like 
dasher, but if it isn't in the design there isn't much point doing it.
