Hi again, IMHO, there lacks something in Nautilus contextual menu : a "Search" option. I know it's available in the upper menu, but hey, when you are in the limbos of a huge server disk filled with plenty of directories and files, looking for a file located "somewhere out there", it's great to be able to perform a search without having to browse all the filesystem again in order to reduce the scope of the search.
