Pathbar UI is just one of the ways to set up the view in Nautilus, i
always use 'Places' view, so that's not really a work around.

I don't know who make these decisions, but for what it's worth: I agree
with the observation above. Also: It has always been Backspace (as long
I remember), and there's no good reason to change it and annoy all us

Just my comment: the bad thing abot having ALT+LEFT instead of
BACKSPACE, is that for pressing ALT+LEFT you need to use two hands.
Instead with BACKSPACE I pressed it with only left hand, making right
hand free to use mouse.

Right, Ubuntu has a responsability there and we hear you, that's one of

It's always two steps forward and one step back with every Ubuntu
release, isn't it? I don't care about the technicalities about whether
it's Gnome, Canonical or Stallman who's responsible for introducing this
bug. All I know is that it says "Ubuntu" on the package, and the
maintainers of "Ubuntu
For forward I'd find [Shift]+[Backspace] equally intuitive as
[Alt]+[Right].

Actually Backspace does not do the GO-BACK action, it does GO-
UP-A-FOLDER. It is different and a lot more convenient when working
inside folders, I use it a lot more often that going back to previous
folder as it is there on the keyboard and I can press it with just one
finger.

The upstream bug shows this as the commit that removes the default

http://git.gnome.org/browse/nautilus/commit/?id=2f1c80cc419b7e77972f63b448afe63d37994c74
so reversing this commit would fix this bug.
The upstream status is incorrect - it should be something like 'won't

Some information from the upstream bug: it turns out that it is
configurable - the way to restore the backspace key functionality is to
add:
(gtk_accel_path "/ShellActions/Up" "BackSpace")
to ~/.config/nautilus/accels.
It's obviously a pain to have to do this manually for every Ubuntu
installati
Hmm. I also set my Firefox and chrome up to match their default
configuration on all other OS's, ie so that backspace works as the back
key (in FF it's just setting browser.backspace_action = 0, but in chrome
you need a plugin). I just find it much more convenient than having to
search for two keys
Firefox on Linux also uses Alt+← to go back instead of Backspace. It has
the advantage of symmetry with Alt + → for Forward and prevents
accidentally going Back a page when all you intended to do was delete
the previous character in a form but your focus was on the wrong spot.
