This question is probably better sent to debian-user or gnome-list.
I dont know how to help you but you could try to start nautilus in a
terminal and try reading a directory and see if you get any different
output on the terminal with that option on or off.
An other thing if you really wants to see what happens is to start it with
strace. Try 'strace nautilus' and youll see everything nautilus does.
