I'm on OS X at the moment, so can't check it right now. Thanks for dropping by the blog.

I just moved from Ubuntu to Debian and have been tearing my hair out trying to make double-clicking on desktop icons "do the right thing". And I agree with you that Nautilus in spatial mode is definitely NOT "the right thing". Now if only Nautilus would implement 'click and drag to select multiple items'!
