Hi,

I am currently looking into making sushi a bit better.

One much requested feature is to switch files from within sushi (e.g.
left-right arrows). This bug for example sums it up:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=656951

The problem I see is that, although the file and path is known to sushi,
the sort order and other stuff is not.

I am starting pretty fresh, but my idea would be to create a dbus-interface
on nautilus which would then in turn act out a "left" or "right" arrow
(calling the neccessary functions directly) and send the newly highlighted
URI to sushi as return value (via dbus).

My question is: Is the approach valid?

And secondly: Does it make sense to make sushi better (and hopefully get it
up to the level of the file previewer of mac os x)? I ask that regarding
the redesigns of nautilus that float around...

Cheers,

Wolf
