Please dont do this.
I also like one of the above commenters and many other users use many archives daily and many of them contain many, many files and i only wish to work on of them which i double click on inside the archive window and there it opens. Hence satisfying the above requirements. Also dialog to ask me what i want to each time as suggested above is a bad idea. it would be annoying.
And the best reason for not doing this is to maintain uniformity between ALL OTHER OS's and distros eg windows from xp onwards just opens the zip file inside the file explorer. maybe something similar can be done in nautilius. but pleas dont extract on double click. extracting huge archives is a time consuming task especially on older machines.
