Nautilus has always ignored that folder, in Ubuntu there is the script
nautilus-script-manager (which I wrote) that creates links from
~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/ to /usr/share/nautilus-scripts/.
This allows me to create packages of popular nautilus scripts.

I am working on a nicer way (nautilus patch) for the next Ubuntu
version, but for now you have to run "nautilus-script-manager enable
script-name" to enable the scripts placed
in /usr/share/nautilus-scripts/.
