The current Nautilus file context menu contains 11 or more items. The average time it takes to select an item increases with their number. The many options suggest a scarily high level of complexity in managing files.

Here you find proposals on how to:

  • improve the organization of the menu
  • cut down on the number of items (including how to handle the action that are no longer in the menu, then)
  • improve the handling of specific items
