1) Find Files Within Current Directory
1a) Under "Basic" tab --
Name: Catfish
Description: Search including hidden files/folders
Command: catfish --fileman=thunar --hidden --path=%f
Icon: Application Icons > catfish
1b) Under "Appearance Conditions" tab:
File Pattern: *
Appears if selection contains: All Files

2) Open Current Directory with Root Permissions (CAREFUL!!!)
2a) Under "Basic" tab --
Name: #Root Directory
Description: Open Current Directory as Root
Command: gksu thunar %f
Icon: Status Icons > Stock_dialog-warning
2b) Under "Appearance Conditions" tab:

3) Open Selected Text File with Root Permissions (CAREFUL!!!)
3a) Under "Basic" tab --

Now when you right-click during a Thunar session you will see very useful new options in the menu, when applicable.
