About stop and refresh buttons:
Refresh is not an action average desktop users does for his/her folders. Nautilus automatically detects changes in the folders. There is no need for refresh button, except in the corner cases like having remote file mount which do not behave correctly. If we really need refresh it should go to menu only with shortcut key (F5).
Stop: The context of the stop button is when the file browser is loading something for a long time (network). Otherwise stop button is useless. Thus, it would make sense to **put the stop button to the context of the loading**. I.e. Stop button is displayed in the file browsing area with label "File browsing is still loading the folder view. Please press here to cancel." I am not sure if Nautilus has Firefox/Chrome style "top notification actions" like for saving password, but that would be perfect for the stop button.
