[Bug 854676] [NEW] Thunderbird gvfs support in the open file dialog

 

Public bug reported:

Hi!

I have some mounted shares in nautilus, which are also added to
bookmarks (so every share is either shown as mounted or as bookmarked)
when I try to add an attachment I can't add a file from mounted share
nor bookmark - neither bookmarks nor mounted shares are shown in the
open file dialog.

As far as I understand it's because missing thunderbird GVFS support. I
think it's very important to fix it, because thunderbird will be the
default mail client and the situation when the file is located on the
remote share is usual, especially in corporate environment.
