This is absolutely smashing. I found nautilus-actions a few days ago and used it to hook up gnome-obex-send for sending files via bluetooth. The gnome bluetooth support and nautilus have been out of step for a while, and the only way to get it working was to recompile nautilus and the sendto-bluetooth and abandon updating nautilus via apt-get. Not a pretty situation to be in. So my hat is well and truely off to these guys, this is a beautiful simple solution to a range of annoying problems.

Not very discoverable to hide things in the context menu. Surely there should be a top level menu item for this somewhere?

Cool!
This could have a litle ‘regex-generator’ gui associated to the “file pattern” field. But maybe I’m wanting too much … At least, this would be reapreveited in a lot of other projects.
Sub-categories (or tags as in epiphany :)) in the second window, to organize the actions, would be util too.

Is there not a way of doing this that doesn’t clutter the menus? The context menus in Nautilus are already cluttered with enough crap as it is.
