I was not aware of nautilus elementary, so I have now installed it 2.31.1 & 2.31.90, and my comments are first impressions.
It does not really address my feeling that nautilus does not integrate well with the 10.04 netbook interface. This may now be irrelevant as unity is here, but the "Files and Folders" menu tab stood out as different in how it worked from all the others. All the icons presented opened the same nautilus, but with the selected focus, this always felt wrong.
In lucid I like the improvements in nautilus elementary.
In meerkat I am having problems with bugs, but I think I will like it. RGBA is not for me, but I like configurable, so people who like RGBA can use it. But I would like to try the ClutterView but can not get it do do anything. Configurable vertical menu is good for me (if I can get it to work!).
Personally I think replacing the "files and folders" action with nautilus elementary will suit me fine.
Maybe it could be an option with the current action + an advanced button as an alternative.
I realise my requirements are very different from the dual boot not much file system model.

ps I am using the trash icon as launch nautilus.
