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.
With Nautilus 3.6's quick search I think it would be a bit more difficult to have Backspace do two different actions (which is itself non-intuitive). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1108637 Title: backspace key no longer works in nautilus To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/nautilus/+bug/1108637/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
