For me this seems that gnome devs don't really care (as usual). I guess if we 
want this bug to be solved in ubuntu, we have to do it ourselves...
I personally start to think that the ones who develop nautilus don't even use 
it on a daily basis. Because these kinds of bugs won't come up on any kind of 
unit testing. It is just an annoying 'feature' that you discover when you use a 
program every day.

Title:
  Nautilus does not properly navigate symbolic links

Status in Nautilus:
  New
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Test case:
  1. Create a directory in Home called Folder
  2. Right click on Folder in Nautilus and select 'make link'
  3. Drag created link to Desktop
  4. Double-click on Link to Folder to open it in Nautilus

  Clicking the back arrow in Nautilus behaves as it should--it takes you
  back to Desktop, not the parent folder of the target of the link.

  However, the architecture displayed near the top of the Nautilus
  window shows the parent directory of the target, not of the link
  (i.e., it shows [Home][Folder], not [Home][Desktop][Link to Folder]

  Pressing alt+up also takes you to the parent of the target, not the
  link.

  Is this a purposeful change?  Nautilus did not behave this way in
  12.04, and the old way seems to me more convenient and less confusing.

  Ubuntu 13.04 64 bit
