As you probably know, elementary OS ships with a tweaked GNOME environment. So as far as file browsing goes, we're looking at Nautilus to serve our needs. And unfortunately, looking at Nautilus leads to a lot of questions like, "What the hell was that guy smoking when he wrote that." So, being the person I am, I set out to find a solution. A lot of us did. And we found it in Marcus Carlson's nice little patched Nautilus. But, now that's no longer maintained. *tear*
So, what better project to take over its development than elementary itself? None other! If you're using our desktop PPA you should notice a spiffy new Nautilus in your next update. Its based on 2.28.4 so its newer than the one in the Karmic repos. Awesome changes include: A single toolbar, the ability to hide the menubar, and many more to come.
If you don't have the elementary desktop PPA you need to go get it! We provide lots of great up to date and fixed packages.
Inspect the PPA here: [link]
Add it with this command: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:elementaryart/elementarydesktop
Please note that this ppa *WILL* change some of your system packages. check whats in the ppa and make sure you want the changes before you add it. I'm not responsible for anything that happens to your computer if you add this ppa without checking its contents!

I like the changes to the interface, and even did some tweaking based on a GTK theme that was based on your mockup. Not sure I'm a fan of gloobus-preview, for now, though, but I see why it's getting good attention.
There's one thing though: why install Zeitgeist if it's not being used at the moment? Or am I missing something again?

As time goes on, more and more applications will take advantage of zeitgeist. For now, Docky does use it
Can't wait to see what else you guys cook up.

Also, We're looking at doing a click-n-hold behvior to expose the forward/back history menus like Google's Chrome.
