Steps to reproduce

1. Try to resize the window

or

1. Try to tile the window on an half of the screen

Reproducible in:

• Nautilus 3.26 (Debian unstable)
• Flatpak unstable (3.28.0-3a35b603 ?)

Current behavior

The minimum width of the window is huge, and can often be more than an half of the screen. It prevents side-by-side tiling, and makes manipulations between 2 directories really laborious.

Expected behavior

A reasonable minimum width should allow side-by-side windows.

Additional information

I had issues with the "previous" nautilus design:

• some long folders name were preventing side-by-side windows on my 1366×768 screen (which is the more common screen definition in the world afaik)
• all attempts to arrange windows side-by-side failed with my other (smaller) screen.

I had to remove the "maximize" button, and to use a more compact theme (Vertex or Materia-compact).

When i saw a redesign with a decent path-bar, i thought it would be better. But actually, it's worse! I can't tile the window on an half of my screen. Even with short folder names; even with Vertex.

You probably already know that, but please, don't forget poor users with no 23" screens:

• The "hamburger" menu is now totally useless and redundant, and should be removed
• There is no point showing so much empty spaces between the navigation buttons and the path-bar
• The 1st centimeter of the path-bar is empty for no reason (an inactive & invisible button ?)
