Comment 11 for bug 185387

To the best of my knowledge, Nautilus upstream has been mostly inactive on the bug tracker recently, and request that patches be sent to the mailing list. The patch seems unreviewed so far [1] despite the author having sent it to the Nautilus mailing list upon request [2], but as mentioned, is considered for inclusion in 2.24.

I think the best course of action would be to keep an eye on the Nautilus commits, bug activity and mailing list thread until critical time for inclusion in 2.24 (within the next few weeks), and gently poke the upstream maintainers for inclusion with test results if things don't seem to be moving.
