--- Comment #2 from alexxcons <alexxcons at xfce.org> ---
If I get it right, you dont actually want to move something, you want thunar to
navigate to the parent folder on double-click on an empty space.

I think this could be very irritating.
If you double click on a file, but you miss it, thunar could navigate to the
parent folder by accident.

As well it would not work  for the detailed view, since there is only empty
space on the very bottom (if at all)

Besides that, I dont think that it is a good idea to trigger something by just
clicking "somewhere". That's not very self-explaining / not expected behavior.

Instead I would advice you to reconfigure the "Alt+ up" shortcut to something
you can reach with the left hand, so that you dont need to let the mouse go.

You tried "View --> Location Selector --> Pathbar Style " ? As well makes it
easy to navigate to the parent folder.
