I'd like to add some buttons (such as cut, copy, paste, new folder, open terminal in current folder) to Nautilus Toolbar. Can I?

And it'd be awesome if I could add custom buttons running commands I specify, and perfect if I could use macros (like current selected file full name substitution etc.) in those commands.

It can be done in a hacky way by editing /usr/share/nautilus/ui/nautilus-navigation-window-ui.xml. You'll want to look into the part that begins with <toolbar name="Toolbar">.

There is no option to customize the toolbar, but there is a bug report requesting it. Feel free to increase the bug's visibility using the "This bug affects me" feature.

    Nice find, but Gnome have already marked that bug as "Won't Fix" so it's incredibly unlikely that Ubuntu/Canonical devs will now add that back in again. Another Gnome regression IMO, but after 6 years of watching this happen, it doesn't surprise me any more. Doesn't make me any less bitter... just doesn't surprise me. :-)
