[Bug 1424203] [NEW] Not able to hide "Network" section.

 

Public bug reported:

Description = In my case at least (and probably in a majority) I have
the only Ubuntu machine on a small home network populated by other
Window machines. I have no use for this "Network" section (especially
since I can't access Windows based domains anyway through it) so I'd
like to hide it. If anything, for purely asthetic reasons. I have
searched at least 2-3 hours and have found NO way to disable or hide
this section unfortuntely...A code change will be required to be able
enable being able to hide/collapse it.


Steps to Reproduce:

1) Open a new instance of Nautilus

2) Observe the "Network" subsection at the bottom

3) Attempt to hide/collapse it as the majority of regular users don't
use it anyway


Expected Result = Should be able to hide the Network subsection or at least collapse it (by right clicking > hide for example).

Severity = UI related only.

Environment = Release 12.04 (precise) 64-bit + Kernel Linux
3.13.0-45-generic + Nautilus 3.4.2

** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
