Improvements in GNOME 2.24 and Ubuntu 8.10

"For some reason the devs have chosen to hide System -> Preferences -> File Management (Nautilus file browser preferences) in 8.10. I think they were trying to hide System -> Preferences -> Encryptions and Keyrings, (which is right above) and screwed up. At any rate, it should be set back, because unlike normal applications' preferences, Nautilus is a literal shell for GNOME and makes up all of the Places section in the Menu Bar, therefore making it extremely important and earning a merit to have its preferences dialog displayed by default in Ubuntu."
