Yep, list-view, name/date/size/type, icon-view for media directories only, gimme that “delete” menu item, but that’s just my workflow.
The right way to do it is via notificactions. Dunno if linux filesystem architecture supports that or not, never needed to use it. Don’t even know what language Caja is written in, could be Python for all i know.
Anyway if there actually is a “Caja team” and they’re using what they support, it’ll get fixed before i ever need to panic over it (ctl-r is easier than a good panic, anytime).
