A partir de agora, não parece haver nenhuma implementação oficial desse recurso. Eu encontrei um pedido de recurso no Ubuntu Brainstorm, mas ele está aberto há um bom tempo . Pode ainda ser uma boa ideia votar em uma das sugestões fornecidas aqui.
Nesse meio tempo, você pode adicionar um script nautilus para executar essa tarefa. Basta copiar o script abaixo e colá-lo em um arquivo vazio com um nome de sua escolha em ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/
(por exemplo, "Destino de link aberto").

### EOF
Em seguida, torne o script executável clicando com o botão direito em seu arquivo e indo para Properties --> Permissions
e verificando Allow executing file as program
.
O script agora deve aparecer como uma nova entrada de menu no menu de contexto do Nautilus. Basta clicar com o botão direito do mouse em um link e escolher Scripts --> whatever-you-named-your-script
.
