What happened to the tagging of unsafe files?

[Elias Mårtenson]

I'm referring to the feature that was developed as part of GSOC about a year and a half ago. It involved tagging some files as being unsafe, and would cause them to be opened in a dispvm by default.

Was that work ever merged? I've been looking forward to this feature for the last year or so.

Regards,
Elias

I think the last update was in October 2017, but it seemed to stall with
developing patches for Dolphin and improving nautilus extensions. So,
afaik, never reached stage that it could be merged.

Yes, that's exactly the case. There were problems with getting
nautilus/Dolphin extensions in a shape acceptable to upstream project.

Would it be possible for QubesOS to merge the patches into its own
branch, or would that require resources that ITL doesn’t have?

Merging is not a problem. Maintaining it and keeping up to date is...
And since nautilus is quite tightly integrated with other gnome stuff, I
suppose there will be problems if version will diverge.
