Be nice if it worked:

$ apt-cache policy nautilus-open-terminal
nautilus-open-terminal:
  Installed: 0.18-1
  Candidate: 0.18-1
  Version table:

nautilus-open-terminal is a proof-of-concept Nautilus extension
which allows you to open a terminal in arbitrary local folders.

Doesn't work for me - in Tree mode - only works if Nautilus is set to
'Places'.

@Thomas: If you are in Tree/list mode the right-click won't work,
instead use: File|Open in Terminal

[in nautilus list view, with the window full of files it's not possible
to open a terminal]
