The patch needs to be updating for GNOME3 and gsettings, do you think
you could do that?

Title:
  Add an option to not expose the Filesystem directly

Status in Nautilus:
  Confirmed
Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: nautilus

  This is a tracking bug for upstream
  https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=122381.  I assume Ubuntu
  isn't too interested in adding this feature before upstream does.

  From upstream bug description:
  "It'd be nice to have an option to disable browsing the root filesystem in the tree, so that only $HOME can be browsed. Browsing outside $HOME is useless for me and probably confusing for non-experienced users who will get all sorts of write errors when trying to write to /usr/lib or will be confused when browsing /dev."

  I've attached an initial patch to the upstream bug and also will
  attach it here for completeness.
