I would, but since 12.10 is using an older version of nautilus, I'm guessing the chance of the fix being applied to 12.10 is pretty slim unless you backport it. Also, I'm hoping that Ubuntu move onto another file manager that doesn't theaten to remove features every release. The gnome team has some warped vision that I don't agree with anymore. I'd prefer using Marlin over Nautilus any day.
I'm thinking this fix wouldn't require too much effort. I may even attempt a patch myself if I get the time. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1045528 Title: Not able to SHIFT click when renaming a file. Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: If you press CTRL + L to bring up the address field, left click in one spot, then hold SHIFT and left click in another spot. It will highlight the text between the two selections. You are unable to do this when renaming a file. It makes highlighting large portions of a name very tedious and should be fixed. Running Ubuntu 12.10 and also on 12.04 both with the latest version from the repos.
