Not everyone has the manual dexterity or hand-eye coordination to hit
such a small target as a tab. The possibilities for dropping it in the
wrong tab, then forgetting which tab you had open, is a serious corner
case that should be considered.


If a user is dragging a file, Nautilus could automatically switch into a tab when the mouse is hovering over it. That way there's hard-to-miss visual feedback about which tab is selected. Might want to check and see if Apple has a patent on this first, though ;)

exactly... and apple has it patented as this is the behavior of the windows taskbar buttons.
