Title:
  [Wishlist] Allow file operations like rename/delete in "Open/Save
  file" dialog

Status in “gtk+3.0” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Hi,

  I believe this is a nautilus-related request.

  It would be a real time saver if one could rename or delete files/folders from within the open/save file dialogs.
  Some typical situations where this is very useful:

    *  you want to change the name of a folder in which you want to save the file. Possibly because have just created this folder from the very same dialog and made a typo in the name;
    * you want to cleanup the destination folder from obsolete files before saving;
    * you want to keep a backup of an existing file in the same folder, by renaming it before saving the new file.

  Windows offers this feature for as far as I can remember. It is not to
  try replicate behaviour, but it is a really nice feature, which does
  not impact the GUI look:

    * 2 extra entries in the contextual menu 
    * 2-3 key bindings (F2, Delete, and Shift Delete)

  which already exist in plain Nautilus.

  Thank you.

  Bests,
  Renaud
