I think both answers are yes - lots of Debian users in Lithuania ask how 
to change Nautilus behaviour to old mode (most of users hate lots of
unneded file manager windows on desktop).

I've tested nautilus from these packages and didn't find any problems -
nautilus works fine, people are happy, because they can choose preferable
behaviour (navigational or spatial), this preference is translated to
Lithuanian ;)

Please include this patch into official debian packages.
If user upgrades from woody, then IMHO default mode should be browser,
so user wouldn't scare of heavily changed UI and behaviour.
