Bug Description
Symlinked folders should abstract out the detail and behave as normal folders.
For example,
Every Ubuntu install has a folder called 'Examples' in home. This is actually a symlink to /usr/share/
This is how marlin behaves currently,
1) Open the folder ~/Examples
2) Notice that marlin changes breadcrumbs to '/usr/share/
3) Hitting back icon takes the user to back to home folder
4) While as hitting backspace key on keyboard takes the user one level up i.e, /usr/share
I think this is inconsistent. What should happen is,
1) Open the folder ~/Examples
2) Marlin changes breadcrumbs to '/home/
3) Hitting back icon takes the user to back to home folder
4) Hitting backspace key on keyboard also does the same i.e, takes user to /home/user
