It would be useful if Thunar could a) be configured to show the actual path instead of the symlinked path and maybe b) have a button to switch between showing actual and symlinked paths. An example may clarify. If user c has a /home/c/Templates symlink to /home/c/d/Templates, when they click on /home/c/Templates, Thunar displays /home/c/Templates. If the enhancement were implemented, Thunar could be configured toinstead display the actual path, /home/c/d/Templates. This is equivalent to the difference between what bash displays using pwd and using pwd -P.
On XFCE 4.10 / Thunar 1.6.3 That bug remains. Thunar does not shows the correct path when a shortcut to a directory is opened. And then if you create another shortcut from that directory, this new created shortcut will contain a bad path.
