N-th hierarchy? Seeking?
Edit->Preferences isn't exactly buried. I'd say that most applications
have the preferences there.
The Preferences dialog has four tabs. One of them is called Behaviour.
Under that the third button is "Always open in browser windows".
I don't call that buried away, or hidden. It's about as visible as it
could be without actually being a toggle button in the nautilus toolbar,
which would be silly.

Preferences -> Session -> Current Session -> Remove is "deeply hidden"?
Can you suggest a better location?
