Missing here - ends on "Move to Trash"
likely other 'missing' atm - some of this
NAUTILUS_ACTION_NEW_WINDOW, NAUTILUS_ACTION_CONNECT_TO_SERVER, NAUTILUS_ACTION_PREFERENCES, NAUTILUS_ACTION_HELP, NAUTILUS_ACTION_ABOUT, NAUTILUS_ACTION_CLOSE_ALL_WINDOWS,

Thanks. I was trying to use apport-bug but it failed on id`ing the package.
Edit: As a godawful work around, I used dconf editor and 'org.gnome.nautilus.preferences' to change preferences. This will most likely be fix for tomorrows iso install.
I see this missing 'edit/prefernces' only in unity/gnome-shell session but it's there in cinnamon/lxde/xfce session as well as the 'Help' menu.
The menu items are in gnome-shell, just not in nautilus - seen in the application menu (drop down from "Files" in panel
No Edit>Preferences in Nautilus (while in Unity)... I'll check in other environments later...
