Bug Description

With nautilus, you can add small emblems to files and folders.
These are pretty and helpful to explain the files and folders functions.
The places-menu is really great in speeding up navigating the spatial world.
However, it looks dull with a lot of grey/beige folder-icons.

Maybe if a folder, added to the places-menu or displayed in the gtk file
selector, had an specified emblem, the emblem could be displayed instead of the
rather boring folder-icon?

Thanks for such a great distribution!

could be an enhancement. Vincent do you think that's a valid wishlist for upstream ?

There's a bug upstream about gnome-panel/nautilus integration. This would be
nice... But having some helper functions would help, I guess :-)

Mmhhhh... I should rename the upstream bug.

I have moved to Hardy Heron Alpha 4 via fresh install from Live CD.

nothing really worked on my computer after that, so I had to re-install, so I put the new Alpha 4 on here.
So I guess you can close the bug as it relates to me, for now, and I will file if it happens again.
thanks
