To be exact, the question is, do we want:

  a) http://www.xfce.org/~benny/tmp/20050316-thunar-pathbar.png
  b) http://www.xfce.org/~benny/tmp/20050316-thunar-locationbar.png

 From my POV, b) offers the advantage that (desktop) search can be 
integrated as "search://" in the location bar and a search pane on the 
left.
