Yep, it's nasty.. :-( But, you should be able to get in there by Ctrl+L 
and enter the path. I miss the rename/delete buttons. I am hoping for 
someone to hack or maybe I tweak one of patch that was for 2.2 and put in 
GTK 2.4. I have no knowlege of C, but I don't mind to try it for my own.

What's version of it? Maybe the development version (1.5.7) has it, which 
it's in MarcusCom CVS. I have no idea, I don't use it so suggest to wait 
for someone to input here.
