 When browsing the term 'rice', I assume the breadcrumb should be:
-[[/|home]] > [[taxonomy/vocabulary/1|food]] > [[taxonomy/term/1|grains]]
+''/|home > taxonomy/vocabulary/1|food > taxonomy/term/1|grains''
 When browsing a node assigned to rice, the breadcrumb should be:
-[[/|home]] > [[taxonomy/vocabulary/1|food]] > [[taxonomy/term/1|grains]] > [[taxonomy/term/3|rice]]
+''/|home > taxonomy/vocabulary/1|food > taxonomy/term/1|grains > taxonomy/term/3|rice''
 We should probably look at the [[http://drupal.org/project/taxonomy_breadcrumb|taxonomy_breadcrumb module]] for comparison.

-/09/18 I'm a bit reluctant on this. One the one hand, ISTR that breadcrumbs in drupal are supposed to as you describe. OTOH, there's a [[http://drupal.org/node/64067|snippet]] to include the page title, which means it is felt as needed and, maybe more importantly, Steve Krug, in its oft-quoted "Don't make me think" book about web usability, insists on including and even boldfacing the last item in the breadcrumbs, and I think this advice is as good as most of the book (I hear even Dries has it). To illustrate this example I'd say that browsing "rice" should give

 and show a page related to the terms rice, typically the list of nodes matching the term. while browsing a node assigned to rice, say Carnaroli, the breadcrumb should be:
-[[/|home]] > [[taxonomy/vocabulary/1|food]] > [[taxonomy/term/1|grains]] > [[taxonomy/term/3|rice]] > Carnaroli
+''/|home > taxonomy/vocabulary/1|food > taxonomy/term/1|grains > taxonomy/term/3|rice > Carnaroli''
 ... which happens to be how drupal works from the home page, which by default displays a node list matching a criterium (published + promoted), from which each node is one level deeper as a detail page. Same with these taxonomy contexts: term page lists nodes, putting the node list in its parental context, and node pages show the nodes, in their parental context.

   * using the latest patch by FGM on top of 4.7.3, the situation is mostly the one I describe, but this leads to a peculiar path on the taxonomy/vocabulary/<vid> page : the breadcrumb currently becomes :
-[[/|home]] > [[taxonomy/vocabulary/1|food]] > food
+''/|home > taxonomy/vocabulary/1|food > food''
   * in this situation, it should probably just be :
-[[/|home]] > food
+''/|home > food''
