I think this is quite a sad approach to this. There's a *huge* wealth of
information nautilus can display and can use emblems for.

Saying "we need the icons to be more inutitive" is good. But saying
"Better icons negates the need for tooltips" is just plain wrong.

Many people have minds like mine. My mind works with words not with
pictures. I actually find iconic picture-rich displays to be hard to
understand unless I can get periodic reminders of what the images mean
by hovering my mouse over them to get useful textual feedback.

Unfortunately many people are firm believers of the false adage that
"it's inituitive once you're used to it" (sic) which has seemed to
pervade the Gnome UI principles for quite some time.
