@Loïc Martin: Maybe you're right - I've never tried to work with an archive like with a folder, just thought it'd be useful...
All right, maybe some sort of summary?
Solution #1: Double click on an archive to decompress it
Solution #2: Leave it as it is
Solution #3: Integrate file-roller with Nautilus to be easier for users to navigate inside an archive
Solution #4: Opening an archive in file-roller would uncompress its contents in background in /tmp to fasten the process of decompression, if user will decide to
Solution #5: Double click an archive should show a popup: "Open an archive or exctract the files?"
I vote for #2.
